Excellent Survey Text

I have been assigning this text to survey college courses for several years. It is excellent! Rader pitches his text at the right level for beginning undergraduate students. The organization is clear, and students find that the prose is accessible. I have considered adopting many other texts but keep coming back to Rader because student evaluations tell me that it really accomplishes what a survey text should accomplish.
