This book has a lot of information about all sorts of learning theories. However, it is one of the driest, most uninteresting textbooks I have ever had to fight my way through. The chapters are WAAAAY too long, and there is nothing to break it up. I understand it is not meant to be flashy and fun, but the illustrations are few and far between, and most of them are charts and graphs that usually don't make a whole lot of sense. They often try to use equations to show how a certain theory works, but they don't really explain all of the variables well in the first place, and then they keep building on muddy variables. My Learning and Motivation professor said that all of the editions are basically the same, so I decided to buy an older edition to save money. I haven't seen the newer editions, but I hope they made some layout changes that help make the book less impossible. I have ended up not reading the assigned chapters, and only reading when I am having trouble understanding a concept my professor didn't cover completely. I feel like I totally wasted the time I spent fighting through the first few chapters.Read full review
