Summary: an honest review
Comment: I can't understand people saying "I couldn't put this book down," because I found it very easy to do so. I tried to read a chapter once, but fell asleep after about 5 pages. Since then, I haven't read a page, and have opened it exactly 3 times to look up a few definitions for 2 midterms and the final. If you don't like reading textbooks, you won't like this one. I found my organic chemistry text more exciting than this..

Summary: I still read this book!
Comment: I don't want to get overly into detail, but all I can say is that I have never, in my years of school work, ever encountered a text book like this. A text book that once I began to read, I couldn't stop.
The brilliance of the insight, and all backed up with actual proof. Objective understanding has never been presented in such a wonderful way. In fact the only people who didn't like this book were my friends and family. As I touted its impressive gate around reading to myself and aloud I learned that most people really do not like to view themselves and humans from an objective perspective, some even find the idea unnatural.
But all I can tell you is that this book changed my life, especially the last half of it, once it got out of the mapping of the physical and got into our social behaviors and mental misunderstandings I really got into it.
I only wish I could convey its power, truly the first enlightened textbook that makes it's reads not only tolerable, but highly entertaining. I emplore you, pick it up!

Summary: Great book for AP Psychology
Comment: My AP Psychology class uses Exploring Psychology 4th edition. This book is what the College Board recommends for their AP test. I also took Intro to Psych last year and found the book to be decent, but this one is undoubtedly so much better. Firstly, it's informative. The author doesn't waste a lot of words - every sentence means something (which also means the text can flood you with so much information). Secondly, Exploring Psychology is articulate and coherent; many concepts in psych can be befuddling but Myers does a great job of helping the reader understand. Thirdly, it's interesting. I had senioritis all this year but Psych was the only class that I actually stuck with and it was partly due to this book. Myers includes numerous tidbits and facts that held my attention...As of right now, I honestly cannot think of a significant downfall of this text. My teacher loves it (and she jealously guards the 6th edition with her life), and so does my class...
