Vol 1 & 2 The Principles of Psych by William James

I'm very happy with the quality of my "used" book. It's in great shape, shipped immediately, and is exactly as described here. Two combined volumes in one easy to manage book. I've already used it several times for various assignments. Thanks for a great deal.
