 Easy to follow and understand December 18, 2007

I thought this book was well written in a way that anyone could understand, but also challenged students to think critically and to not accept everything at face value, but to investigate and make their own opinions.
 This book is totally inadequate November 14, 2007

I am a psychology professor and this is one of the books I reviewed. It is inaccurate in a number of places and fuzzy in others. The standard is not up to a college textbook. To me, this represents dumbing down psychology.
