Reviews

[Katy Lovejoy · Rating 2 out of 5]

This was...an easy class.

But man did I want to read literally anything other than this.

The textbook would have been better and more accurate if there was a second or third author included. Seccombe includes so many studies that she repeatedly contradicts herself, and her overuse of explanation marks makes it clear that she's biased.
