review 1: Interesting book, Interesting subject if only because you get to understand why your lecturer is the way she is.Great classes (mostly female)... and field trips (except the one where we went to see the 'best man at Oxford's speech)shameless self promotion there ... which should say something!At best, at the end, you are left with the feeling of 'well, they're just guessing and backing it up with shaky stats aren't they' - curiously there aren't many mentions of the self fulfilling prophecy that psychology is littered with.Overlong intro on brain science and neurons/ganglia and so on but some good bits relevant to personal space that a lot of people could learn from though I still believe if you don't want to encounter mental illness don't read this bo... moreok ;)
review 2: This is an excellent book written by one of the chief examiners for A level psychology. The text is clearly written and covers a wide area. Although perhaps not bedside reading, it is very understandable and covers the field in considerable depth. It is an ideal textbook. It is sufficiently readable that you dont fall asleep, but contains sufficient detail that is serves as a reference book as well. Highly recommended. less
