In psychology, not everything is black and white. Psychology: Perspectives & Connections 2e dares students to challenge their own assumptions, explore research and to not believe everything they think. The over-riding goal of Psychology: Perspectives & Connections 2e is to align what excites us as researchers and perpetual students of psychology with today’s introductory psychology student. Feist and Rosenberg's aim is to help students understand that psychology, and much of the world around them, is more fascinating—and likely more intricate and interdependent-- than they think. It’s not just black and white. And, with Connect Psychology and its adaptive learning system, students can better understand what they know and master what they don't know. Connect with science. Connect with students. Connect with Feist and Rosenberg's Psychology 2e.

This book does not come with the online access code as it does with the hard covered version. No where is it mentioned that it is not provided. This is unfair for those who choose to go green.

I have been using the first edition of this text and complementary online tools for over two years at the university level and have had great success. The second edition expands on the fist by adding 600 new citations of ground breaking research without losing it's direct and engaging style. The students most of us have in our classrooms are New Millennials, which means that unless they are truly engaged in the material, they will not read it. This book engages them; my superstars don't get bored and my less-prepared students don't get lost, even when English is their second language. As I said in my review of the first edition: Students consistently report that authors report on research and use many examples that are relevant to their lives which ensures that the text very interesting to them. The layout of the entire book and each individual chapter is outstanding, particularly Chapter 3: The Biology of Behavior, which uses layered translucent diagrams to illustrate the 3D nature of the brain and other biological systems.

The complementary online package, Connect (which includes the eBook, LearnSmart, Tegrity, multi-media content, question banks, among other resources), is the other amazing half of this package. Students get the benefits of tools like LearnSmart, a dynamic artificially intelligent study coach, and personalized study plans. On the instructor side, you get automatically graded assignments/test and in-depth reports about the progress of the class and each individual student. You also have the ability to do lecture capture using Tegrity.
