by Michael Hass
From the rear cover
"This book focuses on how to write a psychological report that is first and foremost helpful to consumers, while also being technically and legally defensible. Like the reports the authors describe, the book is carefully organized, beautifully written, and accessible to practitioners as well as graduate students. It is a brilliant accomplishment that should be required reading for every school psychologist."
--Brent Duncan, PhD, Professor of Psychology, Humboldt State University, Arcata CA
