Studying Psychology is designed to provide students with skills and strategies for writing essays, undertaking psychological research and using statistics in psychology. This second edition contains a number of new extended sections including updating research, extending research methods and statistics methods.

'The accessible style of the previous edition remains and is carried through consistently to the new material. The informal and conversation tone brings a confident and confidence-inspiring sense of manageability to what is in reality a nebulous discipline.' - Matt Adam, University of Brighton, UK

'I will be recommending this book to students. It provides an easy, informative and entertaining resource for students. The style will encourage students to persist with the content and interact with the material.' - Stan King, Liverpool John Moores University, UK
