Does anyone have any suggestions for books to use at the other end of the
spectrum for the beginning student in psychology in a first-year seminar
course?
I have the excellent list on popular psych book recentaly posted and I do
like Stanovich's "How to Think straight about Psychology" but I was
wondering if there was anything for psych or social sciences that might
include more basic information like study skills for college, getting along
with peers and faculty, preparing for careers or grad school ...
I'd appreciate any ideas-
Dawn
