Abstract

I hate abstracts. Concisely summarizing the content of a chapter or article suggests that the piece could have been shorter and more efficient, and if that were true, why write it in the first place, and certainly, why read it? Just read the abstract, which will give you the highlights. But since the whole point of my chapter is that it is easy for teaching to go awry if we don’t give it sufficient time, the notion of condensing my chapter into 125 words to enable more efficient digestion seems rather against the spirit of the exercise. So if you want to learn about how I tried, sometimes succeeded, sometimes failed to make sufficient time for teaching, you have no choice but to read the whole chapter.
