Product Description

Product Description
Brand new for the AQA(B) 2008 specifications, AQA(B) Psychology for AS is the complete textbook for the new AS Level specification. Written by experienced senior examiners Julie McLoughlin and Donald Pennington, best-selling authors of Introducing Psychology: Approaches, Topics & Methods and Advanced Psychology: Child Development, Perspectives & Methods, this is the ideal resource for the new AQA(B) specification.

Covering all the topic areas of the AS Level, each chapter provides the student and teacher with clear information about key concepts, theories and research studies, along with evaluation points to aid students in their revision and exam performance. At the end of each chapter, there are practical classroom activities to promote understanding of ‘How Psychology Works’, consolidate learning and develop the skills of critical analysis and application of psychology. Generously illustrated, and now in full colour, AQA(B) Psychology for AS is the essential textbook for the AQA(B) student.

A new CD-ROM in the back of the book supplies fantastic extra resources for students, including drag-and-drop exercises, self-assessment questions, useful websites and further reading lists.

5.0 out of 5 stars Should Hopefully Allow Me To Pass My Exams, 14 Dec 2008
By Steven Stewart "Critic Extraordinaire" (steveo.stewart@hotmail.co.uk) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I'm currently taking AS Psychology and had this book recommended to me as a helpful text book which would get me through the course. This contains basic information on all the approaches to Psychology such as Cognitive or Behaviourist. In each approach it has different sections, which are a brief history, main assumptions of the approach and then the advantages and disadvantages of each approach.

It has many other chapters as well such as gender development and bio psychology as they're much bigger subjects to be fit into one small section of their own so they require an entire chapter. There are useful pictures and referrences to very influential psychologists and their works and influences on the subject. It's an impartial book, which is obviously very important for an educational text book. The end of the book contains a very helpful index and a shortened Glossary containing some definitions of very key phrases within the Psychological community.

I would not only recommend this to all AS level Psychology students, but would recommend it to those who know nothing about Psychology yet hold an interest in the subject. It's very helpful which obviously takes that which is first introduced in the GCSE sylabus and enhances on it.
