Hi Mark I have used Zimbardo's earlier edition and Santrock's a few
years ago. If I had to choose I'd use Zimbardo. Now I use Wade and
Tavris and it is ok. I don't think you can go wrong with either. You
might check APA Teaching of Psychology V20, No.4, 93 and Vol 26, No. 1
99 for articles on selecting text books.
