Product Description

Review
``Contains a wonderful selection of the classic studies on psychology.'' (Journal of Marketing )

Product Description
Highlighting the role of psychological experimentation, THE PSYCHOLOGY OF JUDGMENT AND DECISION MAKING is an informative and engaging introduction to the field written in a style that is equally accessible to the introductory psychology student, the lay person, or the professional. A unique feature of this volume is the Reader Survey which readers are to complete before beginning the book. The questions in the Reader Survey are drawn from many of the studies discussed throughout the book, allowing readers to compare their answers with the responses given by people in the original studies. This title is part of The McGraw-Hill Series in Social Psychology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Concise,easy to read and enjoyable !, 15 Jan 1997
By A Customer
I was recommended this book by my lecturer as part of my Psychology course. Unlike most psychology text books, I found it very readable and enjoyable, due to its effective use of examples and illustrations. I would recommend it to anybody who has an interest in how humans make decisions !

5.0 out of 5 stars A very good summary of a broad area., 10 Dec 1997
By A Customer
Since human judgment and decision making is a huge research and application area, it is very hard to find a comprehensive introduction as "The Psychology of Judgment of and Decision Making". Plous' book is both comprehensive and readable; the examples and the problems in relevant chapters of the book helps the reader easily understand what is the structure and function of decision making, and how one can improve his /her judgment. Suitable both for professionals and lay auidance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Interesting, 28 Jan 2007
By Akhtar Wasim Dar - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book is written with lot of research and is very interesting from beginning to end. All possible areas concerned with judgement and decision making are aptly covered. Readers survey in the start of book provides a useful and interesting excercise for the reader. Illustrations, diagrams and tables are helpful in understanding the narratives and examples.
