great deal on textbooks
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I ordered my textbook and was told it would arrive between the 8th and 15th of the month and it actually arrived on the 8th. Description of book was a little disappointing as the book was said to be in "good" condition and I feel it was "fair" condition as pages were stained and cover was well worn. With all that said,I am very pleased because the price of book saved me a lot over a new one and the delivery time was excellent! Very pleased overall!!!! Would absolutely use again.
Another Classic by The Sue Brothers

The 3 Sue Brothers are always coming out with books about Abnormal Psychology. I have read their texts while in both undergrad and graduate school. It provides a lot of good information about abnormal behaviors that are commonly seen in mental illness.
Valuable book for your psyche library
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I highly recommend this textbook as a keepsake in your Pysch. library. As an undergrad, we used this text in Personality and Psychopathology. As a grad student of Social Work, I have still referred back to this text book. Very comprehensive and formatted perfectly.
One of the best psych texts ever!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
As a college student, I appreciated the quality of the material contained in this book and the clarity of it. No sitting with a dictionary to try and read a textbook. The layout of the book was wonderful as well as the descriptive manner it was written in, the pictures that accentuated the points delivered by the text. All around, an awesome text!
