I think this book covers many important topics that are relevant to my course. However, as a community college instructor, I have to weigh the value of the content against the cost to students. As such, I decided that I couldn't justify the money students would have to pay for this book.
Definitely a cogent text with which to introduce students to these important themes and their interconnections.
Excellent text. Loved the depth of issues.
Didn't receive the review text
Not specific enough to sport context for me to adopt for my course purposes.
I'll adopt individual chapters where fitted, but as a textbook, it doesn't fit into the undergrad classes I'm teaching.
Thanks for sending the review copy!
I found that this book is very informative and breaks the information down well so that the students can understand it.
The book arrived far too late for me to submit it as a textbook for my winter course. I got it mid Nov and my decision date was Nov 1. No time to review and decide whether or not to use it.
