If you are studying undergraduate Psychology and want a clear, concise and fun book on Perception, this is it. It is pitched at the right level. Good pictures and diagrams, which explain more than words can. It aims to promote understanding.
Format:Hardcover
My review is not about the quality of this book in the overall (which if very interesting). But if you already know its latest edition, you will find that buying the older ones does not have so much information. Also, although the book was stated as in good condition or like new...it was all marked with colours underlying the text...and that is just too confusing to read. Make sure you are buying something with nobody's comments on it!
