Worst. Book. Ever. We were made to read this as part of my districts improvement plan. As an English teacher, my one pet peeve is when people use the word in the definition. What did this book do? USED THE WORD CLARITY IN THE DEFINITION FOR CLARITY! Immediately discredited anything I read after that. Don't bother reading this because you will feel more unclear than anything by the end.

Comprehensive with a great variety of examples. Chapters 2, 4, and 7 were the strongest. I do wish they went beyond mentioning prescriptive curriculum and large classroom sizes and said something more meaningful.
