Really useful,
By
This review is from: Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behaviour (Paperback)
I first bought this book as a companion to my A Level. At the time, it had everything I needed - it doesn't cover any statistics though. It covers all other aspects of introductory psychology clearly, with plenty of key studies evaluated professionally. However, some of the material is now a little dated, but this does makes little difference at an introductory level. I still dip into this 'old friend' in the 2nd year of my degree, and would rate it far superior to most other introductory texts.

Useful for A'level?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behaviour (Paperback)
This book is very interesting and can be useful for a course textbook, or as extra background reading. It has lots of detail to help 'spice' up essays, as well as basic descriptions to give a general understanding. However, I should mention that the chapters and sections are not laid out in the same chapters etc of most A'level syllabus' and so it is probably not the ebst book for quick reference. Overall though, I'd say its a good introduction to Psychology for any level of student.

Fairly Good,
This review is from: Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behaviour (Paperback)
Whilst this book is detailed I found it quite convoluted compared to other psychology books I've read. Whilst completing my AS Level in Psychology I used this book the least.
