5.0 out of 5 stars Groups
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...

3.0 out of 5 stars Questionable Reference Causes Doubt
On page 19, under the heading of Selective Perception and Communication, the authors indicate that "research" has shown that grades received by teachers reveal bias of the teacher as opposed to the actual level of knowledge of the child.

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars A classic book about groups- EXCELLENT resource, December 31, 1999
This review is from: Groups: Theory and Experience (Hardcover)
The authors have been around for a long time, but they still have fresh ideas. Anyone interested in the complexity of groups, should read this book. It is wonderful.

This review is from: Groups: Theory and Experience (Hardcover)
On page 19, under the heading of Selective Perception and Communication, the authors indicate that "research" has shown that grades received by teachers reveal bias of the teacher as opposed to the actual level of knowledge of the child. Two specific examples are provided but WITHOUT citation to the supposed research. Since the research material is so well documented in the rest of the book, I question why they did not make the citation available here. I would like to read this research but am left without the option to find it myself. Ironically, my view of everything that I read in this book from this point on will be tarnished by this experience.
