W. W. Norton & Com pany has been in dep en dent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and
Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the P eople’s Institute, the adult education division of New
York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated
academics from Amer i ca and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program— trade
books and college texts— were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton f amily transferred control of the com
pany to its employees, and today— with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and
professional titles published each year— W. W. Norton & Com pany stands as the largest and oldest publishing house
owned wholly by its employees.

student mastery allow instructors to focus on areas
where students need the most help in learning.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
For each chapter, the learning objectives that students
could be expected to master by reading the text are
listed. The questions are identified as remembering,
understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and
creating. This classification is patterned after Bloom’s
taxonomy of educational objectives. Bloom listed six
