5.0 out of 5 stars Great used book
Book was shipped promptly and was like new at a much more reasonable price.
4.0 out of 5 stars it was in a good condition; there wasn't any obnoxious highlighting or markings ...
Overall it was in a fair condition. There was a page torn out, but I didn't realize it until my teacher had assigned it. There was an extremely minor tear on the top cover,but other than that, it was in a good condition; there wasn't any obnoxious highlighting or markings so it was very easy to read through.

1.0 out of 5 stars Most Poorly Written Textbook I've Ever Been Assigned
This is one of the most poorly written textbooks I've ever been assigned to read. The irony of this text being assigned for an effective teaching course is astounding.Amazingly, this book had an "Assistant Editor." I'm tempted to contact the person to find out if they actually did anything for this book or if the new version of the book was simply published with all of the same contributor information.I have no doubt a much better textbook could be used. If you have to read this book, I am sorry.
4.0 out of 5 stars I had initially rented this book...
and I had to go back and buy it. Kellough and Kellough have a lot of experience, and while not 100% of the information will give you a perfect classroom, their insights give a little more comfort for going into the first year of teaching with confidence.
