They are more analytically insightful and have a genuine honesty about their usefulness in the classroom. " " The reviews have been an excellent resource for me, in research as well as in teaching. With respect to teaching, due to the online availability of reviews, it's easy to incorporate discussions of recently published literature or recent films in class.
