Great Addition to the Personal Library / / 2010-04-09
I love this. I've had some interest in Psychology in general, so when I needed this book for my Social Psych. class, this was well-informed of all the issues and concepts that are presented in analysing society as individuals and groups. It has opened my eyes to see people in a different outlook when people are rude, inconsiderate, or when people come as "weird."

Besides those particular points, it also helps in understanding your own personal actions. You can receive a lot from this book that can benefit yourself and others for the good of your social environment. Highly recommend this.

Social Psychology Starters / / 2010-04-02
I'm an engineer by trade and thus have not had much experience with studies in this area. This book provided real life breakdowns of scenarios within social psychology that makes it understandable to me (who has no previous background). I enjoyed many of the topics discussed and have even been able to apply a lot of the cases stated in the book to my real life situations. I consider this book beneficial for everyone who is involved in some type of social setting, whether work or personally related.

Zero stars! / / 2010-03-17
If I could give this book zero stars I would. It is an overly opinionated view of the world. The book doesn't observe why people do the things they do. Instead the authors state their own political agenda and attribute it to the causes of every single action we do as humans. I would recommend asking your teachers to get another book from a different author!!!

Two stars for effort / / 2009-09-28
I am revising my reveiw of the book guys. My recent experience of receiving a a text book late was largely out of their hands. The United states postal service messed up!

I would hope in the future UPS would be the way to go.

The staff at the book guys were communicative and concerned. My refund was issued promptly.
