“Both my students and I appreciate [Michael Chazan’s] writing style as academic yet accessible.”
- Andrew Wyatt, University of Illinois at Chicago
“The author's writing style is smooth and approachable for students accustomed to today's information-technology permeated world. To my mind, he conveys an understanding of the demands of teaching a very different breed of students that have been educated in multi-media environments. That is a huge plus.”
- Michael Danti, Boston University

- Brad Biglow, Florida State College at Jacksonville
“A very good textbook for an introductory archaeological course with an emphasis on world prehistory.”
- Brett Houk, Texas Tech University
