This was a text for my Behaviour Intervention course and I loved it. I don’t think I’ve ever picked up a textbook and looked forward to what I was about to learn. The style of writing is so inclusive and made it very motivating for me to read!!

It’s incredibly possible that this will be the only time I give a 5 star rating to a textbook. This was a superbly fresh take on providing specific course content in a relatable and concise tone with intermixed theory. Since the branch of Behavior Analysis is relatively new in the Psychology field we don’t have enough literary attention on this subject, but this book took the information and provided a mock classroom setting where you could learn and giggle coyly amongst your “peers”. The ideas in this book are not grounded in permanence since this field will have more to offer in advanced courses and through more scholarly conversation, but this was a more than fabulous introduction to the world of behavior change.

Read this for school but has really good ideas on changing behavior as a teacher and parent.
