this book was in horrible shape. Stickers all over the cover, marked inside all over with pen and highlighter, furled up edges. $80. for a paperback textbook in this kind of shape?!! A rip off. I will never order from this company again, and will tell all my fellow students about it.

I needed this book for one of my graduate classes. The university bookstore wanted much more money but the used copies found on Amazon sufficed just fine. The material is very straightforward and easy to understand. I received this book very promptly and in time for me catch up in my class. This book is a psychology book for people considering going into the behavior management of children in the classroom setting. Prior psychology classes will be helpful in learning some of the theories and practices discussed in this text, but it is not necessary. The authors have written the text in such a way that someone with no prior psychology background can pick this up. Very useful and a lifesaver.

John's book is very reader friendly and he writes in a way that makes it easier to understand the theory behind the principles. If you've ever taken a class from him you'll find that his voice is very much reflected in his writing. John provides many real life examples to demonstrate the practical application of the concepts presented. Great book.

Just started the class, but so far the book is easy to understand and the info is very down to earth. I dig the positive approach to behavioral management.

I am actually taking a class with the author of this book. Not only is he an amazing professor, but his material makes sense and is easy to understand.
