These additional aids facilitate covering a lot of material quickly but coherently." -Kathleen Parrow, Black Hills State University "Its brevity allows me to expect students will read everything, while it is still a good text despite being so brief." -Matthew Stanard, Berry College "The brief version works well for a one-semester course...Stearns does not get bogged down in the details; he presents a broad overview of critical points and cultural traits." -Terry Reynolds, Michigan Technological University
