About the Author :
S. Alexander Haslam is a professor in the School of Psychology at the University of Queensland, Australia. Craig McGarty is a social psychologist whose main work is on intergroup relations especiallly social identity, collective action, group-based emotions and stereotype formation. He worked for 16 years at ANU where he was Head of the School of Psychology before moving to Murdoch University in 2007 to become Director of the Centre for Social and Community Research and then to become Director for the Social Research Institute. He moved back to Canberra in 2012 but continues to work 100% for Murdoch University.

Review :
'The strength of this book is in the determined approach it takes to helping the reader learn the subject matter by the inclusion of explanations of key terms and exercises. If coupled with tutorial support, this will encourage students to work harder at the subject matter - always a challenge in what many students perceive as the least accessible and interesting part of psychology. It is well worth considering as a core methods text for undergraduates or for masters students new to psychology' - John Hegarty, THES 'The book is a textbook and, I would argue , a good textbook with all the things a textbook should have (sample questions, formative tests, glossary boxes, checklists)...Chapters in this book have to be absorbed whole and learned from (or possibly taught from). I would highly recommend this book on that basis' Colin Sinclair Psychology: Learning & Teaching
