What a sax player's hands do when the melody note jumps by a 7th is different than what a banjologist's hands do, but they're doing the same thing musically. The included diagrams and explanations make it easy to understand how similar all the instruments are and how they all relate to the keyboard - and the quiz at the end will ensure you've learned the info. (answer key included) This book is an excerpt taken from Garage Band Theory and you might find that to be a better value - it's available on Amazon.
