How To Use This Book
This is an instructional book that is more comparable to a series of lectures than it is to
a "textbook." (This book is not intended for use as a reference manual.) Study Chapter 1
first, then study Chapter 2, then Chapter 3, and so on. Do not skip sections or read
chapters out of sequence.
To gain maximum benefit from this book, study each chapter in the following way:
Step A. Take pretest.
1. If you miss one or more pretest questions, continue by going to Step B.
2. If you answer all of the pretest questions correctly, skip the rest of the chapter and
go to the pretest for the next chapter.
Step B. Read descriptive material.
Step C Take post-test.
1. If you miss one or more post-test questions, continue by going to Step D.
2. If you answer all of the post-test questions correctly, skip the rest of the chapter
and go to the pretest for the next chapter.
Step D. Read the programmed instruction sequenc1e. After you finish, start at Step A
for the next chapter.
Note: You may decide, after you have studied one or two chapters, to skip taking the
pretest until after you have studied the material in a chapter. For example, you may first
read the descriptive material and then take the post test. If you answer all post-test
questions correctly, you can then skip to the next chapter. If you miss one or more post-
test questions, however, read the programmed instruction sequence. Then you can take
the pretest to assure yourself that you have learned the material.
