Murphy's book on dynamic assessment represents a milestone in scholarship on this topic. Murphy offers a review and critique of dynamic assessment within the context of assessment of intelligence that will (should) generate discussion, challenge, and, possibly some controversy. Whatever the reaction of readers, it will be impossible to ignore this text, which I feel is destined to become a major resource in the history of development of dynamic assessment theory and procedures. Murphy's discussion is simultaneously comprehensive, complex, objective, and profound, in other words, a remarkable document -Dr. Carol S. Lidz, Philadelphia, USA Raegan Murphy delivers a masterful, wide-ranging analysis of philosophical, mathematical and scientific issues underlying dynamic assessment and intelligence. Seeking autonomy from ill-grounded ideas along the passage from philosophy to practice, Murphy illustrates how unsound presuppositions at one step often have emerged as unquestioned assumptions in others that follow upon it. Drawing on her multipart analysis, she highlights the choice to develop the field of dynamic assessment within the area created by the assessment of intelligence or within a new area created free from the fetters of ideas and conventions that may be unsuited to this field's purposes and goals. Aided by her pithy pen, Murphy's incisive scholarship identifies both warranted and unwarranted criticisms of dynamic assessment to enable a troubled, but promising field to take a big step to come of age. -Mogens R. Jensen, Director, International Center for Mediated Learning, US
