Editorial Reviews

Review

"The contents match my course goals exceptionally well, which is why I have used this text for many years. No content is insufficiently represented; none are superfluous. The book is both balanced and the right length. . . . The writing is clear, examples are useful, and the focus is behavioral and not some neuro-cognitive-behavioral hybrid. Several features are integrated into the chapters, making the text user-friendly."

"With each iteration, it seems to be more complete. . . . I very much like the somewhat informal writing style; I think that really resonates with the students (I know it resonates with me)."

"I have not found any book that comes close to the usefulness of this book"

About the Author

Dr. Russell Powell earned his Ph.D. in psychology under the late Frank Epling and David Pierce at the University of Alberta. As a long-standing faculty member at MacEwan University in Edmonton, Alberta, he has taught classes in learning and behavior for over 30 years using a variety of behaviorally inspired formats. He has published and conducted research in a wide range of areas, including operant conditioning, social psychology, sleep and dreams (especially nightmares), self-regulation, and history of psychology. Most recently, he helped identify the individual believed to have been Little Albert, the infant in whom Watson and Rayner (1920) attempted to condition a phobia of furry animals (American Psychologist; Powell, Digdon, Harris, and Smithson, 2014).

Lynne Honey -- a self-described "evolutionary behaviorist" -- completed a Ph.D. in experimental psychology in Jeff Galef's lab at McMaster University, studying the role of social learning on alcohol consumption in rats. She has published a number of papers on this topic and considers social learning to be one of the most powerful adaptations available to our species and others. Dr. Honey joined the Department of Psychology at MacEwan University in 2003 because of its focus on teaching and student engagement. She currently conducts research on human social behavior in an evolutionary context, including studies of social dominance, and the influence of personality traits on social behaviors. She also studies the effectiveness of various teaching methods, including peer-review and various uses of technology for learning, and has won an award for innovation in teaching.

Diane Symbaluk received her Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of Alberta in 1997, with a specialization in criminology and social psychology. She joined MacEwan University in 1996 in order to pursue her joint passion for teaching and research mentorship. She has taught courses in a variety of areas including social psychology, criminology, statistics, and research methods. She is presently the faculty advisor for MacEwan University's Community-Based Sociology Project, a supervised student-led research program. Her extensive list of publications includes textbooks, journal articles, and more than forty pedagogical resources (e.g., study guides, test banks, instructor manuals, and online resources). A distinguished teaching award winner, Diane is currently conducting research on published student ratings of instruction and character strengths of award-winning instructors.

This price is a steal
So the textbook is way smaller than I expected, which is actually great. As a college student we all know the smaller the book the better, because we have to carry this thing around. The only thing that annoys me is I hate when sellers put stickers on the book because they are so hard to take off and leave behind residue. I am a book lover so stickers on books bother me, however if you don't care about that this book is perfect. My school book store is selling this same book for over 200 dollars and I purchased it here for 35. I would say this price was a steal.

    This was needed for school and it worked well. They were Mauritius. Just make sure you return it. Lol.

    Love renting this book. It cost so much at my college just to rent digital or hardcover. I got a great deal, came on time, and had a return label.

    A little bit dry college text book. I rent it for one of my course. I think it will help me with some parenting skills and even interpersonal skills. Worth to read.
  • Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2021
    I noticed some writing in the book itself, but I didn't mind a textbook rental. The overall condition of the book is decent. Some minor tears and bends but it's a used textbook rental so that's to be expected. I would definitely recommend this rental if you're taking a psychology course and need this specific book!

    UPDATE (5/21/21):
    There are a few more markups in the textbook (highlighter marks) that I didn't see earlier but again, I think that if this doesn't bother you, you should go ahead and rent it for your class.

    Great book, I love how it’s written in a way that allows you to interact with the text, after ever couple of pages it will have a small section for you to answer questions about what you just read.

    I really wish I would have bought this book instead of rented. I don’t read school books ever and really enjoyed this one

    The book just looks like brand new. The text is very easy to understand and comes with exercises in every chapter, which keeps the reading dynamic.

    Reviewed in Canada on January 29, 2021
    This book is great. I’m happy i purchased it new instead of used as the practice questions are so helpful. The book is a bit smaller than i thought, about half the size of a regular text book, but it still serves its purpose.
