Please don’t choose this for your class
Derived From Web , May 24, 2021
This textbook is different on a number of poor levels. The writing is frequent, with poor errors. It is out of step with current research and uses inflammatory and inappropriate language on numerous issues. There is a discussion about how to use punishment more effectively, including a distribution of using punishment on a severely intellectually disabled child for crawling in an attempt to encourage them to walk.

Binding sucks

After only 2 months of use, the binding comes undone and the pages fall out. Apparently it is made cheaply for how expensive it is.
