Trade Review
"Nick's book starts in the right place: he sees the world through the lens of a psychologist rather than a pusher of e-learning (from the previous edition)." * Roger Schank, John Evans Professor Emeritus, Northwestern University, CEO, Socratic Arts *
"How People Learn will show you how to adopt new ways of thinking about learning that will help you design resources and experiences to support real learning. This is an important book for anyone who teaches others (from the previous edition)." * Colin Steed, co-founder and former chief executive, Learning & Performance Institute *
"Nick does a tremendous job, starting off with how we learn, and then, deriving from it, best ways to design education and training - a formula for success. The book is fascinating and a must-read for anyone who wants to be knowledgeable in this area (from the previous edition)." * Dr Itiel Dror, Cognitive Neuroscience Researcher, University College London *
