Abstract:
Vaughan and Hogg's Introduction to Social Psychology sets the standard for social psychology texts in Australia and New Zealand. This new edition includes completely updated content and a great new range of student and instructor supplements. The authors have retained the accessible writing style, balance of research and applications, and mix of local and international coverage that made the first two editions so successful.
