An interesting read. Discusses the importance of learning different approaches when teaching to ensure that all learners expereince success. Examples of how learners process information differently depending which hemisphere is dominant. Book deals with how materials should be taught-not what should be taught.
It's a great book if you actually plan to apply the knowledge learned. It talks in the sense that you are a teacher or plan to become a teacher and are striving to make a more complete experience with your students. I am not a teacher so don't plan to apply to much of this knowledge besides in my own personal life but would highly recommend to an aspiring teacher.
As a teacher, I found this book interesting and informative. Some of the chapters were dated; but the majority of the ideas could be used with children when teaching.
