Review
Comprehensive, sound, readable, and up-to-date, this is probably the best single-volume dictionary of its kind. Essential wherever psychology matters. Library Journal An authoritative style...clear but concise terms, and extensive knowledge of the subject matter. I am pleased to have it on my bookshelf. THES The most comprehensive single-volume reference to psychology combines psychiatry and pschoanalysis under one broad umbrella, addressing 10,500 topics Forecast The Dictionary of Psychology is the newest and best authority of psychological nomenclature...Another fine book from Oxford University Press www.gadflyonline.com Entries are short, interesting, readable, and give a quick overview of the topic...invaluable for students and teachers American Reference --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Review
"...this version, being more fulsome than most, is particularly useful... it will be a true reference aid and should form the backbone of any student library." (Rebecca C Tovey, Psychology Teaching Review )

4.0 out of 5 stars The Ideal book for any student or teacher, 20 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This book is a fantastic book for anyone studying or anyone interested in psychology. It helps find the meanings to many complex words used in psychology,etc. Coming from a student of psychology i have found this book very helpful for essay work. This book has helped me find new words and the layout is easy to read and easy to find any key words

2.0 out of 5 stars Initial Impressions - not so great..., 11 Aug 2003
I've owned this book for a matter of days but have been disappointed. I'm a psychology degree student. Most recent essay - "Consciousness". However, terms like "Access Consciousness; Phenomenal Consciousness; Monitoring Consciousness and Self-Consciousness" are not included. The term "pseudoseizure" is omitted...to name just a handful of words I've tried to look up. I was also disappointed by some of the definitions, finding them too vague. Perhaps I need to give this reference book a chance, but for now, I'm not impressed.
Perhaps I was expecting too much...?

4.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, 5 Dec 2008
By Foxylock (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I have found this book to be a great help in deciphering many of the more obscure terms and phrases in psychology. Its well put together and easy to use and I have no doubt I will continue to refer to it in the future.
