A must-have, must-read for any CME professional who has been searching for a guide on faculty training and development. The layout of <i>AO Principles of Teaching and Learning</i> is such that each chapter or section can stand on its own and is less prescriptive or textbook-like than it is pragmatic and user-friendly. Fully referenced, with suggestions for further reading, each section is dedicated to a How-To task...Practical tips [on how to run an operating room personnel (ORP) course] could prove to be invaluable to CME providers who are developing education for allied health professionals or conducting cross-functional team training exercises for groups of varied disciplines and learners. A section on Audience Response Systems (ARS)...would be a helpful refresher to CME professionals and faculty alike. The entire CME community gets to benefit from the wisdom [of this book].--The Journal of Continuing Education in the Health Professions
