"I just have to say that I wish that all of my textbooks were written in the style of the New Perspectives series. I am using these titles for all of the courses that I teach that have a book available. As a teacher, I must admit that I need to "get a life," as Patrick Carey is my textbook hero." — Diana Kokoska, University of Maine at Augusta
