This book makes a highly significant contribution to the field of clinical experiences, student teaching, and teacher education. Since Johnson (1968) there has not been a book that has analysed student teaching with this level of detail and analysis. In particular, the insights in the latter half of the book capture many of the recent trends in field experiences and student teaching.
