The fact that I actually read this whole textbook is very shocking, but I actually enjoyed it! The descriptions are very easy to understand, there are plenty examples, and many visuals and charts for those visual learners. I also enjoyed how current this book was, especially for an education textbook, since education is an ever-changing field!
