Tons of info Great book for health teachers! Tons of info that can be used in the classroom. A little too much information for your elementary school teacher (like in my case), but unfortunately this is the book my professor chose.
Waste of time and money It's a textbook, which means that the price is inflated atrociously high. This text is meant for introductory courses and for that purpose it is tolerable. Nevertheless, it is long-winded, dull and poorly written. Also, because it is meant to be used for an introductory overview course, most of the material will most likely be used during lectures. The truth is, this book was the "required reading" for a course I took. Our Professor was most likely required to assign a textbook and she picked this one, and never assigned us to read any of it. I read parts before exams in order to try to fill in any gaps from our lectures, but this book is a waste of time and money if not necessary for carrying out assignments.
