Product Description

The accomplished author team of Phillip Zimbardo (APA president 2001-2002), Bob Johnson and Ann Weber once again present psychology to both teachers and students in a meaningful, manageable format. Each chapter of this brief, less expensive textbook focuses on the key questions and core concepts of psychology, supported by an extensive pedagogical structure designed to aid students. A wealth of instructive features, such as "Psychology in Your Life," "Using Psychology to Learn Psychology," and "Do it Yourself!" enhance student learning and retention of key psychological concepts. Psychology, Fifth edition integrates a cross-cultural and multicultural perspective to make psychology meaningful for all readers. This is all accomplished in a 14-chapter format, which is easier to integrate into a semester or quarter course.

From the Back Cover

It's here!
MyPsychLab
Where learning comes to life!

An exciting new learning and teaching tool designed to increase student success in the classroom and give instructors quick and easy access to every resource needed to teach and administer an introductory psychology course.

Learning in context
With MyPsychLab students use an actual e-book, in the same layout as the printed version, to launch multimedia resources such as animations, video and audio clips, activities and simulations, and more.

Individualized Study Plans
MyPsychLab gives students multiple testing and quizzing opportunities in each chapter. Results from these assessments generate an Individualized Study Plan that allows students to pinpoint exactly where additional review is needed.

Additional help, always available
MyPsychLab offers students free access to the Tutor Center - a one on one service during the hours when they need help most. They also get unlimited access to Research Navigator, an online database of academic journals, with help in writing papers and navigating resources.

An easy-to-use solution
Instructors can spend as much or as little time as they'd like customizing their course. Content is pre-loaded and ready to use. With a click of the mouse, instructors have access to the test item file, class grade book, PowerPoint slides, lecture outlines, and more!

“Before, I was seldom able to use multimedia in my classroom because our department has a small budget. Due to this exciting new tool, I now have access to every imaginable resource needed to teach and administer a psychology course! ”
Teresa R. Stalvey, Behavioral Science Instructor, North Florida Community College

“The fact that the student names are automatically entered into the grade book is a relief. Being able to check when a student logged in eliminates a few arguments. No more copying syllabi! It's all there for them. I've easily posted class notes, reminders of tests and dates for assignments. ”
Mary-Ellen O'Sullivan, Psychology Department, Southern Connecticut State University

“You have finally organized all the materials that have been stand-alone items for many years. ”
Fred Whitford, Montana State University

“This has been the best decision I've made on a textbook. Thanks again for introducing me to this concept. ”
Kathy Manuel, Psychology Department, Bossier Parish Community College

“My students using MPL reported greater satisfaction, more frequently accessed study materials, and earned higher overall grades. ”
Arlene Lundquist, Psychology Department, Utica College

1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING: Read if you require an ACCESS CODE, January 28, 2009

By	Aimee Edmondo "Psych Student" (Santa Rosa, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Psychology: Core Concepts (6th Edition) (Paperback)

The description for this product is very misleading (MyPsychLab Series). I made the same mistake as A.Arshi. Not only did it take three weeks into class to finally get the book in the mail, but I discovered I too was without an access code. So instead of paying $10 less than the bookstore, I am now paying $20 more. My suggestion, go to the Pearson publishing website and buy there, under packaged deals you will see the book/access code package. Make sure to look for the following ISBN: 9780205701452 (6th edition book + access code). This version sold here on Amazon is ISBN: 9780205547883 (book only), which you can also buy on the Pearson site for the same price, and there is free shipping from the Pearson site. Lesson learned.

5.0 out of 5 stars Won't put you to sleep!, December 28, 2004

By	C. Green "GojuNinja" (Kansas, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Psychology: Core Concepts (4th Edition) (Hardcover)

I was assigned this text for a college General Psychology course, and upon reading it cover to cover, I found that it was quiet interesting! The book uses simple terms so it is easy to understand what really matters, rather than trying to memorize countless definitions, and it has a story at the beginning of each chapter to help put each concept in perspective. In comparison to other dry, and complicated psychology books which I have had in the past, I highly suggest this book to anyone wishing, or forced to, study psychology.

3.0 out of 5 stars Did not receive access code with the new book, July 15, 2009

By	B. Ridgely (Bakersfield,CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Psychology: Core Concepts (6th Edition) (Paperback)

I purchased the book new from Amazon so that I would have the MyPsychLab access code that is supposed to come with all new books. Since I did not receive it, I am missing a lot of material in my class. The publisher answered my email that the book needs to be purchased from them or a university in order to receive the code, but others in my class bought new volumes from the university and did not receive it either. Amazon has not answered my email to see what can be done to get the code.
