I read this for a class. Nothing spectacular but just okay in terms of information but was easy to read.

Read this for my first grad class - it has some vital information, and I appreciated a lot of its insights. However, I didn’t feel like I had enough visibility into a lot of the “studies” they were referencing, which in some cases weren’t even cited in specific enough ways to look them up.
