Social and Personality Development Reviews

' ... Tina Abbott encourages students to consider some of the questions that have plagued psychologists for decades, most notably, how do we get to be like we are? The book includes incisive chapter summaries that not only remind students what has been covered, but also demonstrate how the sometimes disparate topics in this area can be linked together.' - Roz Brody, Head of Psychology, Brighton, Hove and Sussex Sixth Form College.
