Title: Superficial
Product review: I was really excited to read this book. My professor had been talking about it as though it explained everything. So, I bought it. I am so dissapointed. First, there are 60 subjects and we only meet about 6 of them. She makes sweeping statements about what works (most of which of are obvious)and backs them up with one or two anecdotes, not exactly a large scale argument. For example, the second language chpater was so cursory it was almost insulting.It was easy to read and interesting, but I wanted so much more. I wanted to meet more of the subjects. I just don't understand how she can make such large conclusions and such superficial answers. Through the entire book, all I read was that the subjects should be relevant and interesting to the student, that's it. That is the big conclusion. Too bad.
