Dr. Meyers does a fantastic job of presenting information that teachers can take into the classroom. Students are faced with situations and dilemmas that they must work through with critical thinking skills. This is a useful book written by a man who believes in bringing the "real" world into the classroom. After reading the book thoroughly, I would honestly fill an entire Strawbridge's bag with copies for distribution among my peers.
A must read for anyone raising or teaching children.

I had to get this book for a class, and I thought what you just did, "great a required book." But surprisingly, this was a great book. It presents a format which is not only needed by students, but should be required reading for teachers and parents as well. I have returned back to school to get my teaching certification, so I practice some materials out on my kids. They love the talking about the dilemmas, but I really like how they started thinking that way about real life situations as well. Get this book!
