Description:

This interactive package features a fully integrated printed text, Web site, and PowerPoint slides, which combine the benefits of a textbook and a workbook. The book presents a breadth of targeted, concise mini-chapters called "Topics," which instructors can develop by adding their own material or using assignments and resources from the companion Web site. This flexibility creates a more active learning environment. "Teacher's Tips" provide practical ideas to use in the classroom. "Quotes for Reflection" present statements from historical and contemporary notable figures that provoke reflection, critical thinking, and values formation.
