The information is solid, but my copy arrived with some pages damaged. I couldn't return it because I needed it for a class. Just be careful with the packaging when ordering. Would give 4 stars if it weren’t for that!

Useful but could be better
I found some parts of the book really helpful, especially the informal learning environments section. However, a few chapters felt repetitive and the layout could be improved for better navigation. Still, worth a read!
