Book Description

November 1998
Groups includes research on group dynamics and current views on ways to make working in groups more effective. Napier and Gershenfeld present complex concepts in a way that makes them more understandable, recognizing that students are more familiar with the dynamics of individual behavior and building on that knowledge to teach group theory. Case studies provide real-life context and exercises engage students in the learning process by asking them to apply what they learn to their own lives.
--This text refers to the Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Groups, December 1, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The book was necessary for a course I am taking but it was interesting none the less. It's interesting to try to understand group dynamics as we are associated with groups in most of our everyday situations. Even in a line waiting at the DMV we are a part of a group that wishes to get a license or get an accident report etc. I was satisfied with the purchase and the delivery time and will continue to shop Amazon.
