Format: Hardcover
this was a text book for psychology at Baker College in Port Huron in Chonda Stimer's class. I found it to be the correct book. Beyond that, it has a lot of useful contemporary (post 9/11) information that is quite useful. Be sure to get the workbook as well. As a textbook, it is actually a very interesting book and no sleeper, as so many text's tend to be.

This is a very well written book, considering it is college text. There is an abundance of useful information, but it's not just knowledge for graduate school. It also teaches everyday applications.
If you are a psychology junky like me and also read these kind of books for fun, I highly suggest it.

Easy to understand and straightforward. The book isn't fantastically interesting but it's easy enough and not too much of a pain to get through. It's not a bad read if you have to get it. I will say the little personal reflections/personality tests are interesting and a bit fun to do.

I am six chapters into the book and let me tell you that it has been an eye opener. The book is packed with concepts as well as with applied research that lets the reader understand all these concepts. It seems to me that it isn't your normal money stealing textbook; the author really put thought and heart into the content. I also have to say that the additional web links, and books that are recommended within this book are very helpful. You will never have to buy useless self help books ever again!

I ordered this as a supplement to the 10th edition textbook, not knowing that some of the surveys were included at the end of the textbook. It appears this is a supplement to another edition as the chapter's surveys are in a different order.

While I am new to the field of Psychology, this book touches on most research topics that I am learning in my other ASU courses. I really like the way the book is organized. My book was used and the previous owner highlighted exactly what was needed from my professors power points. Even so, it is a great book to refer back to when writing research papers for upper level undergrads and perhaps I can use it for graduate work too.

This book is an excellent reference with far more information than just descriptions of varying personality theories. I appreciated the updated research, comprehensive definitions, and subject matters covered. This is a great reference for anyone working in any field especially in mental health or education, but anyone could benefit from it. I liked the display of helpful charts and pictures of theorists that provide clear visuals. The headings and subheadings are organized well. Also helpful are the end of the chapter summaries and multiple choice quizzes. I would strongly recommend this book and any future revisions of it. I do have to say that I had to deal with eye strain due to the small font.
