Editorial Review:
The text of choice at schools across the country, by an author who garners more accolades from instructors and students with each succeeding edition, INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOLOGY: GATEWAYS TO MIND AND BEHAVIOR attracts-and holds-the attention of even difficult-to-reach students. Dennis Coon and new contributor John Mitterer have updated the proven-effective SQ4R learning system (Survey, Question, Read, Reflect, Review, Recite) by harnessing critical thinking to better help students understand psychology's broad concepts and great diversity of topics. Throughout every chapter, these active learning tools-together with the book's example-laced writing style, cutting-edge coverage of the field's new research findings, and superb new media resources-ensure that students will find the study of psychology fascinating, relevant, and above all, accessible.
Introduction to Psychology: Gateways to Mind and Behavior (with Concept Booklet: Gateways, Concepts, Maps, and Review) Reviews:
Shipping is horrid 
2008-09-02 - I ordered this book paying extra for overnight shipping, because my next class was 4 days away, and a week later, the book is still not here, along with the estimated shipping date being another week away.
I've called Amazon and they said it was in the hands of UPS now. I call UPS and they state it's a backlog from the holidays.
If I pay for overnight shipping, which is quite expensive, I expect it to be here in at least 3 days. The book was ordered before the holidays, and honestly, I wouldn't mind if my book were to be backlogged one or two days, but it's taking two weeks now and I'm falling behind in class.
I should have paid the $250 at my local bookstore and gotten it the day before class. I guess I won't order from Amazon again.
Great seller! 
2008-07-05 - The book was just like what it was described as and it was fast service.
Fast refund 
2007-11-17 - I never received the item but they were very cooperative when I requested a refund. The refund was credited to my bank account the next day and I was sent a very apologetic e-mail from the sales associate that I dealt with to get my refund.
good
2007-03-20 - came in a week usefull book if taken psy good deal to saved 20 bucks
Good but very basic
2006-04-02 - A good but very basic and superficial introduction to the field. I would prefer to see some topics explored more in-depth.
