THE GOOD
This is a wonderful overview of modern, Western psychology including: major contributors to psychology, major areas/overarching theories, important experiments, succinct definitions (e.g. from DSM III), etc. The explanations are concise and easily understood. It's a hardback (good to keep as a reference work) in the size of a paperback. The style is matter of fact and seemingly unbiased overall. The author also provides short biographical sketches of major people in psychology, and attempts to tie their background/upbringing into the rationales of their theories.
THE BAD
In an overview of this type, some things are left out, however, I would suggest at least a small reference to these overlooked items:
Psychological Assessment--Minnesota MultiPhasic Inventory (MMPI), Jungian psychological types (esp. the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory or MBTI, the most given test in history); assessment by graphic means including art therapy & the Bender-Gestalt--I studied these in Doctoral courses at George Washington University in DC), and the Management Grid--which I found quite useful as a Supervisor/Manager.
Psychological Treatment/Therapy--Behavioral Modification (very effective way to treat symptoms); and sand play therapy
Management Practices-- Situational Leadership II by Zigarmy, Blanchard, and Zigarmy--which I found quite useful as a Supervisor/Manager. It combines both learning and a logical approach for both employees and supervisors.
THE UGLY
Errors--p. 123: the book says that Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is serial--one can't overlap the levels, but this is not what Maslow said in "The Further Reaches of Human Nature" though it may have been the original version of his theory.
