Great Book!,
I’m using this book for my Social Psychology class. It is the sociology approach to Social Psychology, and I love it! The book has great articles, especially ones from my professor, Dr. Dennis Waskul. I got a great price for this brand new book too!

Inside social life,
This is a pretty good book, some of the reading may seem a little dull, but it has good information.
