Rezension

I am adjunct teaching this course and the main course leader used the book last year and recommended that I do the same. The book is very useful and we follow closely with narrative of the book and its themes. This provides the students who are faced with the subject for the first time with some degree of security. I am happy with the text and would use it again. Dr Guy Burton drupal 20220218
