This book walks psychologists through the study of motivation, exploring all conditions that exist within the person and within the environment and culture that explain why we want what we want and why we do what we do. The fifth edition expands on theoretical ideas further into practical applications, especially in the areas of education, work, therapy, sports, and the home. Each chapter features a chapter box that addresses a specific concern. At the end of each chapter is a list of recommended readings for further study. Psychologists will discover a number of new ideas, including achievement goals, personal strivings, types of extrinsic motivation, implementation intentions, and more.

I had to get this textbook for class, but either way - it's a great read! It certainly helps you understand what motivates people! Much cheaper online than the school's bookstore and arrived promptly!

5.0 out of 5 stars A really excellent textbook on motivation and emotion
Reviewed in the United States on 26 March 2012
Verified Purchase
This is an excellent textbook that I would highly recommend to anyone. It is very well written, well organized, extremely clear and understandable, and has very helpful figures and flow charts as well as good black-and-white photos and illustrations. I use the book as a lecturer in the psychology of emotion with my international college students at a top-rated Asian university, and I believe my students (one-third American, two-thirds Asian) also find the book a very good read. I have assigned 9 of the 16 chapters and supplement the book with a reader on emotional intelligence, but I would definitely use the other half of the book if I have the opportunity to teach the course on motivation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous book!
Reviewed in the United States on 10 March 2011

I purchased this book for my elective class for my Master's degree as a required reading but loved it so much I am sending it to my mother to read for enjoyment purposes as well. It is not only a text book but has some great insights as to what to do to just help you change your own way of thinking and living and how to motivate yourself and others on the job and in life in general. It is easy to read, grabs your attention, and keeps you captivated. It is not like reading a text book at all. This book will stay on my shelves for a lifetime.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Quality, Cheap Price
Reviewed in Canada on 12 February 2012

This was a used textbook but it was in very good quality and looked brand new. I got it a few days before the expected shipping date. This book was originally $170 new from my school's bookstore so buying it for only $85 and it being in such great condition was a great deal. I am very happy with my purchase.
