Review
"This is an excellent theory book...the writing style is clear and concise, and students will find it interesting. I really liked the practical application questions at the end of each chapter; they will assist students in synthesizing and applying the learned knowledge."--Bahira Sherif-Trask, University of Delaware
"Standard and classic references are balanced with very recent references-nicely done. The Research and Application sections in every bring clarity and understanding. A common reaction in a theories class is, 'They're running together in my mind.' This text makes every theory memorable by tying it to real-world research and applications."--Mary Bold, Texas Woman's University
"This book takes a reader-friendly approach to subject matter that is typically somewhat cumbersome to read. The result is a straightforward presentation of theories that enables the reader to grasp the basic theoretical assumptions and challenges the reader to apply the theoretical concepts to real-world situations."--Maureen Blankemeyer, Kent State University
