Review of the first publication:
‘It is a thoughtful book… The style is clear without being condescending and the author takes pains to carry the reader along by avoiding jargon and by digressing from time to time into neat elucidations of difficult, complicated or problematic issues.’
— Bill Becker, Educational Psychology in Practice, Volume 2, Issue 2
