5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!

I used this book instead of the textbook I was given in class, since the layout is far more simpler.
I found the simplistic AO1, AO2 and AO3 layout for each topic great for unit 3 psychology especially! Most other textbooks I have gotten my hands on may be nice to get a general idea of the subject, but they are often confusing. This text book is straightforward and helped me secure an A in all my mocks (hopefully in August I'd find I've achieved my A! :P)
It is also very colourful and easy to read as it is broken up into little subsections that are digestable.
The only downside is that the evaluation only gives suggestions rather than full on developed points. Though this isn't much of an issue, since if you're aiming high, you should be able to develop evaluation points with the general PEA rule. Also if you did well in learning AS, you can use all those methodogical skills to evaluate

4.0 out of 5 stars Strong on evaluation, a bit lacking in description
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 February 2013

A useful textbook for the A2 Psychology AQA course, it contains numerous research studies to use for evaluation of theories and perspectives, as well as many evaluative points regarding issues, debates and approaches. It also has assessment questions with examiner's advice which is helpful in preparing for the exam. The textbook falls short in terms of AO1, which involves description and explanation, as it often has only a paragraphs worth of information on a particular topic and then the rest is research and evaluation. This can be resolved by using the Cardwell/Clark/Meldrum/Waberly Psychology A2 textbook alongside it, which contains more AO1 but less helpful AO2.

Compared to the other book for AQA this is one is much much better I have both books and this one stands out so much because its condensed and in date with the specification. I haven't used the other book ever since I bought it, its absolutely rubbish.
This book was totally worth the money. The delivery was quick and I think ots great fro A2 Psychology.

This is a good secondary book to use for a little extra information on a specific topic, or to look at if you are struggling to understand something and need it worded differently. However, I wouldnt use it as your main textbook as it's not structured in a way that's easy to learn and I found the studies cited very different from the ones I learnt for aqa. I realise there are many different ones you could learn and the ones in here would have been accepted but there were no use to me.

As an A level teacher I like to read different research for the various topics we cover. I found this book useful when making resources for the delivery of a new topic. I particularly like the layout of the material and i think it is written with clarity and accuracy. The depth of content is more appropriate when compared to other textbooks.
