Customer Rating:      Summary: Comer's "Abnormal Psychology" Comment: I purchased this book for a college course of the same subject. The cost was about 40.00 cheaper than the college bookstore, and I got it within 3 days, no hassles. The book was new so it was in great shape, however, it did not come with a CD as I thought it would and use of the website that accompanies the book is limited, unless your instructor opts to offer a hybrid class. The material is easy to read and follow, and is fairly up to date with only a few items that should be reviewed; such as current meds (a lot has changed recently), and some of the research seems dated. Otherwise I'm satisfied with my purchase.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Awesome book Comment: This book is an excellent reference that breaks down many important concepts into understandable terms for students. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in psychology.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Purchase Review Comment: This was a great experience. The shipping was fast, and hassle free. Hope to buy this way again.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Text Comment: I own several Psychology texts and this is a fine introductory source for abnormal psychology. The illustrations and case histories are quite interesting, and the text is exceedingly easy to read. Very few people will probably find this a compelling read outside of a classroom, but for a textbook, it's a very good one. I'll hold onto my copy - you never know when these things can come in handy.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Abnormal Psychology & Video Presentations in Abnormal Comment: A good for the understanding of abnormal psychology. This is highly recommended for the undergraduate study. The book is rather dry but does contain valuable information.
