DESCRIPTION:
lisa labrador said Five Stars. Perfect. LF said Disappointing. I purchased this for a class I was taking. Unlike other psychology texts I've enjoyed, this was very dry reading. It was more like a history lesson than psychology. Not what I expected at all.. "Shipping Nightmare Resolved" according to estatler. There had been a strange shipping problem with this book -- it supposedly came to my door three times (not true; there is a absent package delivery note on our front door) and ended up hundreds of miles from me. I didn't have it for one of my exams and my grade reflected that. It got to me in time for my second exam and, as my grade on that exam shows, it was a needed text!.
