From the reviews of the second edition: "This book promotes the idea of helping school personnel, parents, and others involved in the child's life interact more effectively in order to encourage positive behaviors and ultimately achieve successful academic and emotional goals. ... The audience includes school psychologists, special educators, and other school-based professionals as well as mental health practitioners. ... it also could be a suitable graduate text or training manual. ... This is material you can use immediately" (Gary B. Kaniuk, Doody's Review Service, August, 2008)
