4.0 out of 5 stars Fan of Singham's, October 13, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The author of this book is a very brilliant man. I was fortunate enough to have him as my physics teacher. I picked up the book initially out of respect of my former professor and see what he had to say on the subject. As a teacher at an inner city high school, I found myself sharing what I read in this book with other teachers and administrators.
