Eh. Just eh. This book had quite a lot to offer, but it was lacking in the delivery. Some of the sample test questions, which were paired with answers located in the back of the book, didn't match up with the required readings. Some of them even offered incorrect answers. Also, King tried to make things so relevant to the "NOW" generation that she provided some stories and characters, pulled while drifting in the WWW, which didn't even turn out to be accurate.

2 out of 5! Sadly, my lowest score yet.

i mean, the material itself might have been quite interesting--but the delivery was not anywhere near decent, as well as the segments it was divided into. there wasn't really enough methods to help memorize the information either, the self-quizzes were too short.

This was a college textbook of mine, and I thought it to be very interesting as far as content, with convenient key term sections to memorize, though the delivery could have been better.

A good overall teaching of psychology. It has many good examples and questions for the students - which I will use as class discussions. However it will need to be updated with the new DSM-V material instead of the DSM-IV which it uses now

Really good textbook to learn basic psychology. It takes you through all the basics, the people, theories, and what they all mean. If you know very little about psychology and are interested in what it is all about, I recommend this book.
