Social psychology traditional and critical perspectives

Description

Social Psychology: Traditional and Critical Perspectives addresses the key issues in social psychology — such as prejudice, aggression, conformity, persuasion, attraction, relationships and prosocial behaviour — in a bold and innovative way. As well as providing detailed coverage of classic and contemporary mainstream research, this book engages with critical literature — bringing to the textbook the sort of debates that can be found in social psychology conferences, journals and specialist texts. In addition, the book goes beyond simply describing research findings — it critically evaluates the research it covers, supporting your own critical engagement with the literature.
