Abnormal Psychology, Fourth Edition W/CD
Abnormal Psychology, Fourth Edition W/CD
When first published in 1984, Abnormal Psychology won widespread support and hundreds of adoptions for its innovative approach, which highlighted the psychological theories and treatments that best fit each disorder. In the new Fourth Edition, Martin E. P. Seligman and new co-author Elaine F. Walker once again establish Abnormal Psychology as a visionary text with a new integrative approach that explores the interactions between the psychological and biological influences on human behavior. In addition to nearly 1,800 new references, the Fourth Edition highlights important new trends in the field, from the explosion in biological and neuroscience research, to new life-span developmental theories, to the challenges confronted by scientists and clinicians working in the field, to the impact of psychological disorders on patients, their families, and society.
User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Awesome!
This book was in excellent condition! No highlighting or marks at all. Like brand new!
4 Stars Organized with interesting case studies. Easy reading.
The text in paperback form was quite inexpensive. The book was organized into easily digestible chapters with insightful DSM classifications. The chapter on sexual disorders was quite explicit. Our instructor skipped it in lecture.
4 Stars good book /good price
It is a good quality book for a relatively good price and it also included the cd which adds value. There is a considerable amount of highlighting but that can be compensated for by simply using a different set of highlighters myself. It would have been nice for it to be 5 to ten dollars cheaper.
