"The new edition of this classic textbook is very welcome. Hewstone and colleagues have made excellent improvements in coverage and pedagogical features, consolidating continual development of this text since the first edition nearly 25 years ago. Students will enjoy the style, find it easy to learn from, and be pleased that it retains its approach as a serious textbook. Instructors will find that its clear structure, comprehensiveness and reader-friendliness makes it a pleasure to teach from."
