Reviews

This book represents a comprehensive collection of information that is suitable for all teachers and lecturers who deliver computer programming language courses. ... This is an excellent book for computer science educators, with a wealth of information that should be used by all teaching practitioners. ... I would recommend this book to all computer science educators and suggest it become mandatory reading for novice computer science teachers entering the classroom. (S. M. Godwin, Computing Reviews, June, 2015)
