I placed this order on a Thursday and was starting school on the following Monday, so I knew it might not get here in time. But after reading the reviews saying how fast people have gotten their books I took a chance and just ordered it. Sure enough it was here Monday morning. Thanks so much!

People are complex, social creatures by Anthony M. Faaborg (US Air Force worldwide)

5 Stars
December 28, 2007
This text is an excellent introduction to the field of social psychology, and covers the popular topics within this fascinating area of research. The text begins with a brief history of social psychology, and also takes pains to assert that good social psychological research follows the rigorous discipline of all good scientific research. After these introductory chapters the text dives into the popular areas of social psychology -- self-esteem, aggression, social psychology in the legal arena and in business, just to name a few. Perhaps the most important lesson to be learned from reading the text is this: People are complicated and complex social creatures, and it is quite dangerous to make any kind of assertion about motivation or reasoning when considering a particular person in a social setting. As a survey text the material is good -- it introduces the foundational concepts of social psychology and provides more than adequate bibliographic material. However, as a survey text, the book is NOT aimed at those looking for a great deal of depth. On the other hand, door is open for those who want to research the bibliographic references!
