Psychology in Everyday Life

I like this book a lot more than I though I would. It appeared by the title and cover photo that it would be watered-down psychology, but the author is legit and knows his stuff. A great intro psyche text, full of in-text citations and reference lists if you're interested to research in further detail.

Only qualms are that chapters get a little long-winded, and there is a little bit of a corny undertone at times, probably meant to keep things from being too dry. Otherwise a very nice read.

I ordered this as it was a required reading for my Psychology class and I've read sections to keep up with the required reading but overall I'm not overly pleased with the book. It's easy to read and great for fast info but to me it doesn't go in depth as much as it should on some topics.

The book is perfect and shipping was fast! The only thing I was expecting was when buying it I opted for the 3-ring version assuming it came with the rings. Well it came punched for rings but no rings were included. I had to purchase loose-leaf rings to put on it. Other than that it is just as I needed and am very satisfied with this purcahse!

This book was said to be in good condition. I looked up the criteria to be considered "good" condition and I thought it said "little to no highlighted next".There are at least 3 different colors of highlighter's throughout this book, and it isn't the lighter colors, this has the orange, blue and green. If I wanted to make my own notes with highlighters, (because I buy books to keep), I couldn't because it is too marked up. The edges are very worn and torn/bent over. You can tell this book has been reused many, many, times. I'm not happy with it, but have no choice but to keep it because we're already in the 3rd week of class.:-(

Required text book for psychology 101 at the A.I... this book is very straight forward and teaches with story telling and facts and statics of course. It gives you real life examples and guidelines. Easy to read.

The book arrived in the same condition that it was described as. There was nothing wrong with it, except for the very minimal wear... but hey, it's paperback. There were no pages missing. The cover was still in very good condition. There weren't any markings in the book that I remember seeing. Good purchase. Thanks person who had this book before me... you're awesome. :)

i bought the book and it was missing page 410 it was blank on the side of page 409. can you tell me why its missing a page. i was just putting the pages into a binder and then i found out it was missing . should it be missing like that ? i thought it was suppose to be like the actual book .

I found the chapters in this book to be long.......& found myself drifting off having a hard time concentrating on the material. I guess most college students(such as myself) would say that about "all" the books mandatory to read for a college degree so maybe I'm a little biased! one plus about this book was at the end of each chapter their was a summary-breakdown- revision of the chapter in a list style listing all the important info which was easy to refer to if you didnt get a chance to read the whole chapter. Book came in good condition and in a timely manner so I had no probs in that aspect.

This is an excellent introduction to psychology. It is entertaining and interesting. It is also full of pictures and examples of how the scientific findings within the field relate to your everyday life.

5 stars for shipping and affordability. I am taking a Psychology survey course online and registered late...needed textbook quickly and didn't want to pay the prices at the campus bookstore...this arrived on time (yay Prime shipping!) and I have it in a simple 3 ring binder and it works just fine for what I need it to be. You will need to be careful turning pages, as this is loose leaf, but a good D-ring binder that doesn't pull on the pages will suffice. Arrived in perfect condition, shrink wrapped and with no signs or use or wear. I am rating the process and the product, of course, not the content. I have to buy what the Prof tells me to, no matter what I think of the content, lol!!

I received this book within about 2 weeks. I was little nervous about purchasing the ring bound version because of the previous reviews, I'm glad everything turned out okay. This was the best $5.00 I've ever spent.

This was to be a text book for me. I ordered it twice. Not recieved. I had to pay $75.00 at Campus bookstore, for an unbound book. I was one month late getting it for class because I ordered and waited twice. $75.00 for an unbound book is a racket. Not Happy in any way. In the past I have not had this problem when I order text books from the store.

As a psychology teacher, I love using this textbook. Myers is well respected in the field and writes at a level that students not only understand, but also enjoy. It is up to date and has relevant and interesting examples. The book is fairly price compared to most introductory psych books. The third edition has substantive changes compared to the second edition. Well done!

Came to me slashed from the back of the book I'm guessing when the box it was in was opened. Two pages were also cut through. I rarely open it but whoever cut the book really shouldn't be near knives.

I bought this book used for my fall Psychology Class at College and it was delivered within two days, and it looks almost brand new. There is no writing in it and the cover only has one little wrinkle at the top. I am so happy!
