    I love this textbook! I was satisfied with the quality of the book. I actually forgot I bought it used because it came like new! It is constructed it very well.

    The content is also constructed well. They actually used all of psychology's studies on how we learn to design the best possible learning tool. It's clear they put a lot of time and consideration into making the easiest textbook, without sacrificing any of the information or knowledge. The book covers pretty much everything under the sun, including lots of biology. It also focuses on all dimensions, all opinions and presenting the evidence of all sides, (but still taking sides enough where it's justified). They even include evidence for awkward claims, such as intelligence being affected by race, which I appreciate.

    It's effortless to read, and not once did I inevitably stall or give up before finishing a chapter. Once I started reading, I didn't stop. They keep the modules short and to the point, and they provide lots of testing opportunities along the way. There is one big test at the end of each module, as well as multiple questions along the way. This is because testing has been shown to be the number one way to truly commit something to memory; I know that applies to me too! The self testing helped me, a lot.

    I will not be giving up or selling this textbook now that my course has finished.

    This book was in excellent condition. I was told at first that it would take a few weeks to ship out and I ended up getting it just a few days later. The book was also placed in a very nice binder as well. Very happy with product and seller!!

    Came in perfect condition, and very fast, for more than half under what the college bookstore was "renting" it for!

    Required for my class, but I will say that it's a very good book; it's well written, and I'm learning a lot. I've really benefited from the study tips and recall questions. Too bad it's so expensive, especially with launch pad (which you'll have to purchase separately, btw!) but I do see the value in this book.

    Excellent book. Myers did an excellent job by presenting the subjects in a format that keep the student reader engaged and facilitates the understanding of the concepts covered in the book. Make sure you buy a good binder or binder rings before buying the looseleaf version.

    I can't remember when I have to return this book by and it doesn't even tell me I rented it just bought it. I need an address to send it back to as well and cannot find one. Help.

    Although having an etext book is convenient, the freezes. Also check you rental date! For some reason the rental date is not a semester long like all the other rentals. Amazon makes the expiration date in the middle of the semester and makes you pay, per day, to extend it. I did not realize the expiration date was different than all the other rentals. Waste of money, your are better off renting the hard copy.
