Could easily be two-thirds or even half the length it is. There is quite a bit of redundancy within and across chapters, and this makes for a jarring effect while reading: one minute speed reading past reiterations, then the next minute having to pump the brakes to catch the new information. With all that said, this is a tremendously valuable book for new teachers (or just anyone in general aiming to be an effective teacher).

A worthwhile overview of the basics for the first-time teacher. Helped me crystallize some of my plans so that I can move forward efficiently.
