Social Psychology by Karen A Hegtvedt
Social Psychologytakes a sociological approach to the study of the individual in relationship to society. Its main purpose isis to highlight how social psychology provides varied, yet inter-related, explanations for individuals experiences in groups."The greatest strength of [Social Psychology] is the quality of social psychologists that are included and the organizationI think that with each chapter they bring in the ′big names′ in research, and [that is] a very strong aspect of the text."
-- Curt G. Sobolewski"I really like the attention to small group processes (status and power processes get short-changed in most social psychology texts), the emphasis on theory, and the use of concrete examples to flesh out the theories [in Social Psychology]."
-- David Diekema"I was especially happy to see an entire section dedicated to emotions and affect rather than including emotion at the end of another section. I likes that a greater portion of [Social Psychology] was dedicated to group processes than other available textbooks. I think that the final section of integration may be the strongest selling point for this book. Finally, the concrete examples anchoring each theory greatly appeal to me."
