Durlak, Loyola University of Chicago 'Given the extensive nature of SEL provision, the book is inclusive and wide ranging but also helps the reader to make important distinctions between different theoretical approaches, drivers and the plethora of different types of interventions. This book will be thought provoking for both practitioners and academics, and it provides an extremely useful text for anyone wishing to explore social and emotional learning' -- Youth In Mind http://youthinmind.info/py/yiminfo/BookLink.py?id=2198 20140102
