Book Description

0618713123 978-0618713127 December 18, 2006 4
In a concise and accessible 14-chapter format, Essentials of Psychology, 4/e, retains key features of Bernstein's, Psychology, 7/e, including Thinking Critically, Focus on Research, and Linkages. Combining extensive pedagogical support and emphasis on active learning, the text challenges students to "learn by doing"--to actively participate using materials from the text and to think about what they're learning as opposed to passively receiving written information. The Fourth Edition includes the latest information on research in the field. The text's integrated pedagogical system helps students master the material by supporting the elements of the PQ4R (Preview, Question, Read, Recite, Review, and Reflect) Study System.

3.0 out of 5 stars It is OK, February 19, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Essentials of Psychology (Paperback)
I loved how fast I've recieved the shipment. The book was in a good condition actually better then I've expected. The book itself is just OK, I would like for it to have more examples. It is not a bad book but like I said, I like having examples when studying and I don't see it that much.

5.0 out of 5 stars HAPPY CAMPER, December 21, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Essentials of Psychology (Paperback)
This book was a little bent, but I knew that before I bought it. It was in the condition promised, and I was very happy with the book. It wasn't written in too much, and wasn't too torn.
