Review
Praise for the second edition: 'An excellent core text ! it covers the specification brilliantly and I like the question and sample answers' section.' Sarah Sawyer, Head of Psychology, St Augustine's Catholic College '! I came out with a high A grade which I honestly didn't expect, and which is the result of studying your excellent book ! [It] was clear, explained everything in a way in which I could understand, and somehow many facts and quotes just stuck in my head! the book was just a pleasure to study from ! ' Judy, a student from Liverpool

VERY USEFUL!!!
I bought this because i use it at college - and it is very good, clear and is good tool for revision and if anything you dont understand it has definitions and lots of details!!

clear and informative
as a student of AS Psychology, i find this book very clear and informative. it provides vital information in a interesting way, which means you can remember it easily. the layout is pleasing to the eye.. not dull and boring.
another great thing about this book is that it provides activities that help you test your knowledge.. and the answers are detailed so you can compare and improve.

i would definitely recommend this to anyone studying AQA Psychology.
