Serrell's book is full of good, sound advice, based on solid research and years of experience, presented clearly and interestingly....

I find that Serrell's commentary comes to mind during all of my writing activities.

The book itself is a metaphor for the ideal exhibition about which all museum educators dream. -- James Scarborough * Museum News *
