“Sarah has done it again! This is my 2nd course with her and she has made an overwhelming amount of data points easy and executable. I published a 750 page reference text in 1994 and after many grueling edits swore to myself to never do it again. For the first time in all this time I am now considering to write another book. Thank you, Sarah! I have overcome my previous publishing trauma. ”
