Easy to understand what's important

This book was on the required list for a doctoral course. I loved the easy reading style of the text, not as dry as many of my other books. The authors clearly explained the JCSEE standards and made my project for that course easy.

All the evaluation standards in a nutshell

This was a required text for a graduate course I was taking, and it will make an good addition to my professional library. The authors have compiled a concise review of each evaluation standard with the rationale behind each standard into one tool. It is not an in-depth analysis of evaluation standards or the history of the development of the standards. This book's strength is in its layout and brevity; I can find exactly what I am looking for when I need it.
