Remember this book? submitted by ssands on June 26, 2015, 4:44pm I read this almost a year ago. I don't remember all of it, although I do remember some of the stories that were used to illustrate the techniques, which were very engaging. Actually with the prompting of the "additional details" in the library's summary, I do recall more, so reading it wasn't a complete waste of time! But seriously, it is an interesting topic, well-written, and well-researched.

Quizzes are good submitted by mjanen on July 2, 2018, 5:00am Who knew? They seemed unnecessary, but the book convinces you of their value--with data.
