Introduction to Psychology, Sixth Edition

Summary: Great text book!
Review: 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.

Review: 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.

Summary: A balanced, easy to read, and in depth intro to psychology.
Review: Kalat's book is the textbook for my Introduction to Psychology course. I think the book contains all the items important to the course, as well as some interesting, more in-depth information. Its strong point is the amusing text, as well as the frequent proof that UFO's don't exsist. His concept checks make it real easy to decide whether you know the material well enough to pass the test or not. Its also great to see he is not particularly long winded on any one subject, although the book ends up being pretty long. The examples also help a lot. Overall a very good book.
