This is going to sounds ridiculous, but I genuinely loved this textbook. I used the online version for my class, which included a lot of knowledge checks and quizzes. I’m not sure if the physical version includes these things, but they were great for studying and comprehension!

There were few distracting errors in the book, which is impressive considering its length. The abundance of sources referenced on each page helped to establish authority and were easily accessible if I had additional curiosity or questions. The writing generally seemed quite unbiased; it was well-informed and representative of many perspectives.

I’m honestly going to miss studying my couple of weekly chapters of this book, and am seriously considering finding a physical copy to purchase at some point because it was such an interesting and valuable read. I already find myself referring back to in daily interactions and decisions.
