Editorial Reviews
Review
[S]kilfully written, developing in the early-career student the sense of what constitutes a good theory and how it differs from a mere re-description of data . Michael Eysenck has a very strong reputation for writing textbooks. This book further enhances that reputation..
–J.G. Quinn, University of St Andrews
