"This book basically discusses the measurement techniques and methods of guidance in schools. The state governments now-a-days are appointing counsellors in schools to guide states in regard to curricular studies and in regard to their social and personal problems.

It is expected that the book will prove to be of immense value to the parents, to the counsellors and to the officers of the department of education and the educational planners and administrations." (jacket)
