5.0 out of 5 stars Easy Read April 13, 2013
By Alcazar
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This was my required textbook for a heredity and behavior class. It was a great introduction to behavioral genetics, with short chapters and written in a way that was easy to follow. Will probably keep after class is over!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! September 13, 2012
By Don't Play Games
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
The book came in a very timely manner and was exactly what I ordered! The correct edition and everything! The book was in good condition and only visible signs of use is a moderate amount of highlighting. Overall, excellent!
