“I particularly like the ideas of splitting chapters up, to permit easier creation of reading assignments; of including adding group process approaches; of eliminating some of the less-used theories (e.g., Dahrendorf); and of retaining the style of writing.

-Christopher Hunter, Grinnell College

 

“I think the prospectus covers anything I could think of. Another thing I like is the proposal to separate the material into more digestible chunks.’  Anything that makes the material more accessible and aids in the student's understanding would be a plus.”

-David Ford of University of Central Oklahoma

 

“I like the text as is, but the revisions seem appropriate.”

-Paul Gray, Boston College
