[and] change through the use of a variety of surveys and feed?-back instruments. He has made this topic highly engaging and accessible."e; "e;So, here you have the best of everything--an important topic; a talented, entertaining, and highly qualified author; content that is practical; and a text written in an easily comprehended manner.
