Reviews

[Paula]

I actually read a later version of this and it was very concise. There were areas that could have been expanded, but a good book.

[Brian · Rating 3 out of 5]

I appreciated all of the outlines that this text provided for the various forms of testing available. It is a college text, so it is a bit dry and cumbersome to read. The chapters do tend to repeat some information, but most of the sections offer enough examples of specific tests that it is a pretty informative read.

This was an alright text to peruse for my class. I definitely felt it was the most concise to date in the last year and a half on special education (history of and delineation, etc.).
