Introduction to the History of Psychology Good, well written, excellent summary and glossary at the end of each chapter. I’m not finished but so far my only complaint is the obvious political bent in the intelligence chapter.
Psychology, Themes and Variations Clear, concise and comprehensive introductory psychology textbook. Reading the history book has made me aware of some minor errors in it but nothing damning, just a reminder that if you’re really interested this is the first book to read, not the last.
Social Psychology Very far from the first social psychology textbook I’ve read. Doesn’t stand out in my mind. Covers all the classic social psychology experiments that are in the Sequences and more. Almost certain to be substantially revised next edition in light of the big replication project in social psychology, seeing as some of the most famous social psychology experiments just don’t replicate.
