I'm a psychology undergraduate and am currently revising for my first year exams. This book is the one I have used more than any other textbook and it's been incredibly helpful during not only during the exam period, but throughout the course of my first year. It's made understanding any new concepts and theories a lot easier and I would recommend it to anyone taking a psychology degree. Buy it now!

RashadReviewed in Germany on 20 November 2017
1.0 out of 5 stars Das Buch wurde in einem schlechten Zustand zugeliefert.
Verified PurchaseDas Buch wurde in einem schlechten Zustand zugeliefert.
Das Back-Cover und ca. 30-40 Seiten sind zerdrückt. Leider lohnt es sich nicht, es wiederzusenden und ersetzen oder erstatten lassen.
Übrigens es wird von Italien gesendet.
Über das Buch selber kann ich momentan nicht vieles sagen, da ich es noch nicht durchgelesen habe. Aber es sieht ziemlich interessant aus, wie gewartet.
