Review

"Henslin hooks students on learning about the world around them, and suggests they seek answers to the question ‘Why should I care?””

Roger Nemeth, Hope College

“My students tell me that they love the varied scenarios Henslin provides in the book.”

Kristie Palmer, Richland Community College

“The boxed features in Henslin often explore controversial issues that generate great on-line discussions among my distance learning students.”

Kristie Palmer, Richland Community College

“Henslin begins each chapter with an interesting vignette. The text is accessible and easy to read.”

Lucy Ogburn, Middlesex Community College

“Henslin offers an introduction to research and his heavy inclusion of research shows its importance. He does this at just the right level.”

Jan Poppendieck, City University of New York, Hunter College

“I appreciate Henslin’s balanced theoretical approach, good topic coverage, and that the book is very readable.”

Derral Cheatwood, University of Texas, San Antonio

“The boxed examples in Henslin add a new dimension to the course. He truly has a down-to-earth approach.”

Sue Dowden, El Camino College

“Students like this book because the reading level is just right, the examples are relevant, and the strong visuals keep them interested. My students also like [Henslin’s] accounts of his many travels; they give the book a global feel.”

Romana Pires, San Bernadino Valley College

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
