Best Pick for an introduction to the study of psychology

I teach an IB Psychology course and this is by far the best introduction to psychology text I have read and used in my course. Kalat does a fantastic job integrating current research into each major topic and even provides summaries of key studies providing their hypotheses, methods, results, and key points from their discussions. What's more, Kalat offers questions that stretch across Bloom's levels of questioning. Perhaps most importantly, my students love this book and read it with pleasure! And these are high school students! Finally, unlike other detailed psychology texts, this text is very digestible! It is very well organized and structured. It includes clear diagrams and visuals that really help my students. Kalat's style of writing is not only enjoyable to me, but my students really enjoy it! It is very intelligent, but warm and friendly. I HIGHLY recommend this book for any advanced psychology high school course or introduction to psychology course in college.

Great

This book was in very good condition, fast delivery, and I would buy from the seller again.

Great text book!

I took a Intro. to Psychology course as a Prerequisite for Nursing school. Kalat explains everything clearly with great pictures,charts,examples, graphs, etc. I got an A in the course and I give the book an A as well. I also highly recommend the study guide that goes along with this book, it came in very handy and is complete with practice tests for each chapter.

Most interesting textbook I have.

Kalat knows how to write so that this information is memorable and interesting. Funny anecdotes, concept checks, interesting additional facts are all included. A fine textbook for an intro to psychology. Makes you want to continue learning more.
