Editorial Reviews
Review
'I will never use another textbook for my social psychology courses!' Dr Martin Hagger, University of Nottingham Hogg & Vaughan is the most comprehensive social psychology text on the market and covers material in a more sophisticated manner than the competition. Moreover, the chapters on culture, self/identity, and language provide information that is often lacking.' Dr Mark Burgess, Oxford Brookes University I use the fourth edition of Hogg & Vaughan for my first-year class and can say that it makes teaching social psychology interesting and fun! The writing style is clear and engaging and conveys the passion of the authors even with difficult and potentially dry material.' Dr Anja Eller, University of St Andrews
