I used Brehm, Kassin and Fein on the recommendation of a social psychologist (which I am not). It's easy to read, entertaining, but light on actual research, BUT the readings text that you can get to accompany it is pretty good for getting their feet into the research. The website also has activities for every class.
The class is a usually-sophomore class with many non-majors. But we're in Kansas, so the class ain't very diverse...
