'Given the myriad of introductory textbooks on the market, I have continued using Gargiulo's text as it offers a clear, understandable overview of exceptionality and a wealth of resources that compliment my instruction' - Emiliano C Ayala, PhD, Sonoma State University
'The First Person features are very well done and the students love them!' - Michelle LaRocque, PhD, Florida Atlantic University
