5.0 out of 5 stars A great reference to hold onto, May 1, 2002

This review is from: Psychology: With Study Guide (Hardcover)

Anyone who is concidering a future in Psychology must pick up a copy of this book. As many books are there for General Psychology this one has got to be one the best written and descriptive books I have ever read. The chapters are carefully broken up into consecutive topics that start with the history and basic terms of Psychology and lead you to client-based pscyhoanaylsis information.

This is must have for all Psychology majors.

This is an excellent source of information for an intro into Psychology. Text is very informative, with most of it coming from the author's personal experiences. Drs. Don and Sandra Hockenbury keep you interested throughout the text with expert writing. Recommened text for beginning Psychology students.

I recommend this book to anyone because it shows the what, how and why of many psychology topics from personality to psychological disorders. Make sure to get the laster edition for more up to date information.
