Very disappointed - I had to read this textbook for a mid-level psych course and was very disappointed. Not only is there a lot of "fluff", but the author frequently presents the results of studies in such simplified terms, that it would be easy to draw the wrong conclusions (and conclusions which might be sexist, racist, classist, etc) from the information. There are also little "observation quizzes" and "things to think about" listed in the margins which were so subjective or irrelevant that I found them insulting. My favorite was a comment on breastfeeding, when the author suggested it was a good idea because it was less stressful on fathers, especially at night! I had to look back at the cover of my book to double-check that it was really written by a woman! That's just one example among many that I found very insulting in the book. I can't believe anyone still really thinks that way in this day and age!
