Good book, very boring. A must have for any psychology student

2008-10-07
This book is very boring and painful to read. However, the quality of information is of great value to anybody in the behavioral sciences. I gave it a three because it was boring but I think people in the field definitely need to have this book.

APA

2008-10-04
This is a required textbook. It really is needed for anyone in college. I would also recommend getting the MLA publication.

aid for thesis

This text has every possible option for citing in APA. Can get overwhelming, but very useful for my thesis.

No brick for this binding, just an orchid.

I bought the hardcover of this 5th edition for about USD 27. Excellent price. Massive amount of info, but the neat thing about this hardcover is that it is a proper sewn-in-signatures book that stays pretty well flat when it is opened. No brick required. Far better than my ppbk 4th edition, with its so-called 'perfect' (glued) binding. This is one of those books that I gotta have, and this suits me fine.

This product is in perfect condition and is easy to use! the fact that it is spiral bound makes it easier to find and locate the various contents within the book without creasing the cover or other pages.

Don't Waste Your $$$$$

This book sucks. It is unorganized and does not provide enough examples. There's software and online sources available to help you.

A great resource for college students

Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association

Currently, I am taking a course entitled "Introduction to Research in Healthcare" as a prerequisite for my radiography major. This particular manual, though not necessarily required for the course, is extremely helpful as I am in the process of putting together a literature review for the course, using the APA style format as a guideline. It is extremely thorough and easy to understand. I also was thrilled by the fact that the book had plenty of examples to go by, rather than just state the basics of, for example, a reference page. I highly recommend this book to anyone, but especially to fellow college students who are also science majors (especially in the medical field).

The invisible book

2008-09-10
One star was as low as I could go! I wanted to give them a ZERO! This book must be invisible, because I've never seen it. Yes, I ordered it. Yes, I paid for it. No, it never arrived. I had to go to the campus bookstore and buy it there so I could have it for class. When I emailed to ask about the status, I got no reply. This is why people stay away from online ordering. Two out my three book orders were fabulous...this was a disaster! I will NEVER order from them again. Their reliability is non-existent.
