      abstract = {"This groundbreaking book offers a compendium on college  student persistence that bridges the gap between concept,  theory, and research to successful practice. The book is  anchored by the American College Testing organization's  What Works in Student Retention survey of 1,100 colleges  and universities, which provides insights on the causes of  attrition and identifies retention interventions most  likely to enhance student persistence. It also includes  decision-makers and practitioners with evidence-based  interventions and best practices for improving student  persistence"--},
