Good book with great information. It was especially helpful buying the eBook so I could search for terms and phrases throughout the entire book very quickly. I wish it was less expensive because I opted to rent the book when I really wish I had paid for my own copy for later reference.

I love the outline of the book, it was shipped quickly, and it was necessary for my abnormal psychology class. I love learning from this book. The way it is laid out makes it an easy read.

I really enjoyed reading this text. It was easy to find data that I needed quickly and I found it to be an interesting read. I highly recommend it for anyone trying to get a basic introduction to abnormal psychology.
