Opis

International in scope, the Encyclopedia of Psychology will be the fir st place to turn to for authoritative information on every area of the field - and for answers to literally thousands of questions about con cepts, methods, theories, findings, major figures, schools of thought, and emerging areas of interest. Organized alphabetically, the articl es range from 500 to 7,000 words in length. Multi-article entries cov er major topics in depth, and the 400 biographies constitute a mini-en cyclopedia in itself. An extensive system of cross-references and bli nd entries facilitate research from article to article and clarify lin ks within the field. An exhaustive index makes topic location quick a nd easy.

Recenzje

[It] is neither the first nor the largest Encylopedia of Psychology, but probably in many respects the best one so far.
