I really wasn't looking forward to yet another psychology text, but this one is actually enjoyable. The author has managed to pare down each study to the essentials and doesn't waste a ton of space trying to entertain the reader. I would recommend it for anyone interested in how the mind works, and the information that has made our understanding greater.

Excellent compendium of 40 studies that influenced the field of psychology. It is very readable, and very useful in the classroom, as well as reference for student use.

Don't sell your book January 24, 2006

This is a great book. If you are an undergraduate, don't sell your book. YOu may think you've heard about these studies and you wouldn't refer back to the book, but I wish I hadn't sold mine. They are the landmark studies that I keep wishing I could use for a paper, and will probably be on the GRE. Little Albert afraid of every furry thing, Bandura's learning through observation, and even some Freud, though he didn't really do any studies and it ticked off my prof that he was in there. I'm now re-buying the book because there have been too many times I've wished I've had it since the class was over a semester ago.

We have 2 copies of 40 studies about the house. When reading any introductory psychology book, I find it more fun to look up the original research than to read the summary(sometimes incorrect summary) as written by the author of the introductory psychology textbook. Cindy Marriott

I needed this product for my Psychology class. It's a great book, explains how theories were founded through experiments. A pleasure to have purchased!
