| I'm using a version of this book which has a different cover to the one advertised, so hopefully this means that there is a new version of this book, which has fixed all the errors mentioned in other reviews. But, while this book is good for practicing higher level questions, many of the solutions are at best dubious, or at worst blatantly wrong/contradictory - which make it very confusing to use. I've used other similar publications and not been aware of such poor accuracy. Not to be recommended. |

| This book has a collection of very valuable multiple-choice aptitude tests. However, a serious weakness of the book is that although answers are stated, the reasoning behind the answers is not given. So the reader is left unable at times to learn from his or her mistakes - it would have been sensible to explain the reasoning and rationale behind the individual tests. |

| Colin Cooper was one of my lecturers at Queen's University Belfast. He is a brilliant man (and a very nice one to boot!).
This book provides an excellent introduction to Individual Differences - it is written in an accessible style, and all assertions are backed-up by scientific research. I warmly recommend this text to anyone seeking to further their knowledge in this fascinating area of psychology. |

| 6.The Mismeasure of Man by: Stephen Jay Gould June 05, 1996 |

|
| Gould has utterly dissapointed me by writing this tabloid about how nature "ought to be" rather than how nature behaves. He knows little about psychology and statistics while leading the reader into flawed arguments about the differences (or otherwise) of various human races. There is no doubt whatsoever that Gould is pushing a typical social engineering, pseuo-academic, political correct agenda. I feel sorry for science for having individuals such as Gould, who, instead of observing ... Read More: |

| This is a fantastic book. I am a philosophy graduate and ph.d. student - to my knowledge this is the best book on arguing and reasoning ever written. The book is thus worth reading for several purposes; if you just want to be better at understanding and providing arguments in life in general, or if you are a student and want to write better essays and papers. It provides practical examples, and a model for understanding arguments. The model is simple and straightforward, simply because it accurately describes what a good ... Read More: |
