"The Clear/Dammer book has done a good job of optimizing (pedagogical) features with varieties of print, bullets, and boxes used effectively. The listing of objectives at the beginning of each chapter and the summary discussion questions, suggested readings, and Web sites at the end are quite useful. They provide resources for the motivated student to pursue and for the instructor to draw one to enrich his/her presentation or assignment."  Be the first to write a customer review
