Another book for a class...I've studied a lot about single-case or steady-state designs so this was not news to me; however, the book did a good job of offering up neat examples in different areas of research.

This book should be on the shelves of all Behavior Analysts. Readers will leave as better scientists and practitioners having read the wide range of applications of single case designs included in the text.

I had to memorize this book, whether or not it is actually worth five stars I couldn't say, but it is ingrained in my psyche.
