Written by well-known, trusted authors Sheila Sorrentino and Bernie Gorek.

Only OBRA-mandated content or material that is essential to understanding that content is included, making this the perfect textbook for courses with limited time and resources. Written in an easy-to-understand style at a 7th-grade reading level.
