Dear Professor,

As you know, a good textbook can open students' minds to new ideas.

Our authors understand today's students and know how to reach them. Not only have they synthesized the research and know the best way to facilitate your students' understanding of complex ideas— they have been credited with some of the most authoritative content in Social Work, Family Therapy and Human Services.

With a wealth of quality products to offer you and your students, we and our authors would like to invite you to become a member of our First Editions Club. As a club member, you’ll be one of the first to know when a new book is published for your course and you can preview select chapters of many books before they are published. You’ll also have the opportunity to provide input about our products and make an impact on your field.

To start your membership, simply:
  1. Browse through our first editions and review an online sample chapter.

  2. Answer a few select questions.

  3. Choose a Penguin-Putnam title—As a Thank You!
We hope that you consistently find that we are committed to publishing books that make a difference, and that our most recent successes have ensured our position as an industry leader.

Sincerely,

Laura Lee Manley
Marketing Manager

Patricia M. Quinlin

Senior Acquisitions Editor
