This book has some fascinating points but I plotting it was cheesy how the author interjected her own poems. Maybe that was skipped in the 6th edition I’m not sure. The book was over priced for what it was, even used. If you have to get this book I would probably get the 5th edition because now they are dirt cheap.

Excellent book, a small wordy and “touchy feely”. Used, but not a fantastic deal. Excellent reference book for Psych, but.
