Product Description When Elliot Aronson, Timothy Wilson, and Robin Akert started with the first edition of Social Psychology their overriding goal was simple but ambitious: capture the excitement of social psychology in a textbook. Now in its sixth edition, the authors have discovered - through many kind letters and e-mail from professors and students - that they have succeeded in making their book an enjoyable, fascinating story, not just a dry report of facts and figures. In their work they have found that social psychology comes alive for students when they understand the whole context of the field: how theories inspire research, why research is performed as it is, how further research triggers yet new avenues of study. The authors have reached students by conveying their own fascination with the research process in a down-to-earth, meaningful way, yet have done so without sacrificing a firm foundation on which to build the reader's understanding. Here, in its sixth edition, the authors present a rigorous, scientific approach to social psychology in a manner that continues to build on the text's legacy of engaging and fascinating students. | ||

Zero stars! If I could give this book zero stars I would. It is an overly opinionated view of the world. The book doesn't observe why people do the things they do. Instead the authors state their own political agenda and attribute it to the causes of every single action we do as humans. I would recommend asking your teachers to get another book from a different author!!! | ||
Two stars for effort I am revising my reveiw of the book guys. My recent experience of receiving a a text book late was largely out of their hands. The United states postal service messed up! I would hope in the future UPS would be the way to go. The staff at the book guys were communicative and concerned. My refund was issued promptly. | ||
Good product! Text book was deff used, but the price was the best. Shipping was pretty fast. Overall, I am content with this product. | ||
Full of valuable information This book provides a wealth of information and goes in depth into the newly formed field of Social Psychology. The only drawback was the typographical errors that it contained, which is probably why it was for sale online rather than in a bookstore. | ||
Just as promised....Greadt transaction... This book was exactly as it was described and in great condition. Would def do business with again! | ||
