I read this book for graduate school and rated it according to other educational texts.

Chance tackled many complex issues within this book, but she explained all of them clearly and thoroughly. I really appreciated her bolding of key terms and the separation of chapters into distinct sections. I LOVED the case studies at the end of each chapter. It was incredibly helpful to have one case study with a sample analysis provided and one case study for us to analyze on our own.

Required reading for grad school. Broad and a good level of depth.
