I routinely ask my students to give ratings of the textbook on a 10 point scale, and the average rating given to Goodwin's Second Edition is approximately a 9..."—Jason L.

HERE'S WHAT YOUR COLLEAGUES HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE NEW THIRD EDITION

"The writing style is wonderful! It is clear and engaging, as if he were taking talking directly to the students. ... Topics are covered very clearly, with a knack for pointing out the pitfalls in conducting or in interpreting research." -- Margaret Ruddy, The College of New Jersey

I felt it provided the students with a convenient 'resting place' after the final chapter of the text" -- William P. Smotherman, Binghamton University -SUNY

Hicks, Louisiana State University

"Coverage is good -- some really important things ate covered here that I've seen missing in other texts. Organization is sensible." -- Thomas Joiner, Florida State University
