Reviews

"Although Sabates' book lacks the glossy paper and splashy photographs of mainstream texts (and thus the cost is reasonable by textbook standards) . . . I encourage Christian social psychology faculty members to give this book a look. The content in the book is rich and can serve as a foundation for faculty members to explore related topics of their own choosing, as well as provide the starting point for many interesting classroom discussions. Faculty members using this text will find many opportunities to excite students about the rich and fertile field of social psychology."
