Reviews
"The material reflects current thinking in the field...This textbook does a very thoughtful job of organizing [tables and figures]. [A majority of my students are visual learners]...having all of the tables and figures is greatly appreciated...The focus on presentations and presenting the research is very helpful."
"[This] textbook is very copious and thoughtful, without being overwhelming or patronizing...this textbook has a really nice balance and is comfortable to read. Additionally, the figures/tables are very helpful and are great for all learners, especially visual learners."
-- Jeannie Stamatakis-Amess"[The key strengths of the text are] the style of writing, the examples, the depth of the information, [and] some chapters are beautifully organized and helpful, [such as writing your research]."
