Summary: Good general guide
Comment: As an adjunct professor of psychology, there have been times when I have looked up words in a collegiate dictionary and not found the psychological term, or found a definition that was very inadequate. On the whole, this dictionary gives a good overview of psychological terms in a concise manner. It also gives them from differnt viewpoints; for example how a person from a psychodynamic perspective would define a term versus a cognitive-behavioral therapist.
The only downside to this book is that it does seem too technical at times. At least twice I have looked up terms I already knew, and found that the definition was not clear at all. Still, this is a good reference, especially for students.
Rating: 4
Summary: Excellant reference material
Comment: As a psychology student, I thought this would be good investment although I was a little concerned about how such a small book could be of use on such a broad topic. I have used this dictionary a number of times to check if it had what I thought were some fairly detailed words - and I was wonderfully surprised to find them every time. I find the defintions to be sufficiently detailed every time - either giving you enough information to jolt your memory on the topic or enough information to know where to look up for detail in the large text books.
Rating: 5
Summary: A Comprehensive Work
Comment: This work explains every key terms in every perspectives in Psychology. As a beginning Psychology student I found this work extremely useful to me. Not only will you find this work comprehensive and concise but also user-friendly. I think this work should be at the top of your 'book selection priority list'.
