PRAXIS English Language, Literature, and Composition 0041


Book Description

I selected this book to help me study for the Praxis II 0041 because it was one of the only test prep guides to focus solely on that particular test (rather than including all English praxis tests or all Praxis tests or whatnot). I was impressed with the "content" sections of this book. It actually seems to cover a broad overview of what the Praxis II 0041 will cover. However, I am extremely displeased with the publishers' decision to promote the idea that they include 4 practice tests on the cover. If one reads the smaller print, one will see that two of those tests require further payment online. Fine, whatever, so it's only two exams. At least they're explicit about that on the cover of the book, right? Well, let me tell you a secret: the "diagnostic test" they mention hosting on their website, the sample questions in-section in the book, and the "free test in the book" all include overlapping questions. Therefore, the practice test in the back of the book is basically useless.

Book Description

A veteran hockey writer takes on hockey culture and the NHL--addressing the games most controversial issue Whether its on-ice fist fights or head shots into the glass, hockey has become a nightly news spectacle--with players pummeling and bashing each other across the ice like drunken gladiators. And while the NHL may actually condone on-ice violence as a ticket draw, diehard hockey fan and expert Adam Proteau argues against hockeys transformation into a thuggish blood sport. In Fighting the Good Fight, Proteau sheds light on the many perspectives of those in and around the game, with interviews of current and former NHL stars, coaches, general managers, and league executives, as well as medical experts. One of the most well-known media figures on the hockey scene today, famous for his funny, feisty observations as a writer for the Toronto Star and The Hockey News and commentator on CBC radio and TV, Adam Proteau is also one of the few mainstream media voices who is vehemently anti-fighting in hockey. Not only is his book a plea to the games gatekeepers to finally clamp down on the runaway violence that permeates the sport even at its highest level, he offers realistic suggestions on ways to finally clean the game up. • Includes interviews with medical experts on head injuries and concussions, as well as with other members of the media • The author not only wages an attack on the value of fighting in hockey--but also on the establishment hockey culture Covering the most polarizing issue in hockey today, Fighting the Good Fight gives hockey fans and sports lovers everywhere a reason to stamp their feet and whistle--at a rare display of eloquence and common sense.
