This book actually came earlier than I expected, arriving after only 2 days! This was extremely convenient since I had my classes coming up in the next week and was afraid I would not get the it in time..the packaging from Amazon was also very nice in that it wasn't excessive..it actually was small enough to fit in my mailbox!
I am also pleased that I was able to save about $30-40 bucks on this book and I enjoyed using it in my class. I like the fact that it uses real-life events, cases, and cultures many times throughout the book in order to explain certain psychological phenomena, as it made reading about these things more relatable and easier to envision.
Also, the type of book I purchased was made unbound and hole punched to be put in a binder, with the purpose of being more convenient to add your own notes, so I just thought I would add that, as I wasn't aware that it wouldn't be a regular hardcover textbook when I made the purchase.
Overall, I am very satisfied with all of the aspects of my purchase! As a psych.. major, I will definitely keep this book on my shelf to read not only for key terms, but also for the interesting real-life issues it brings up.
