Customer Reviews

Better than what my school offered

My school wanted $92 for this book and shipping would have taken 7-10 days. So not only did I save much needed cash for a full time student, I got it faster. (this book was not required for purchase, but is much easier than reading a book online for $70. Again, way cheaper)

Great Book!!

I purchased this book for an online psychology class that I am taking this semester. I found this book to have a great price, since it was considerably lower than at the school. This book is well organized, easy to follow and a great and easy read. I have found the information very useful and along with our class discssions have learned a lot about myself and how others around me react and why. The title of the book really fits the information in it!!

Great Price

The book was older than expected, but the price and delivery made up for the age.

Psychology and the Challenges of Life textbook purchase

I was pleased with this purchase, it was delivered quickly and in great condition. It is good that the publisher allowed a look inside the book before I bought it to make sure it was the correct edition of the book. It also came with a study guide, which helped me in my class. Overall, I was happy with my purchase and I would buy from them again.
