1) too environmentalist [Rating: 3 out of 5]
A bit namby-pamby on biology. Where do all those tendencies, preferences and inclinations come from?2) Great book! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Came on time, exactly what I wanted. Quality fit the description well. Thank you!3) A unique form [Rating: 5 out of 5]
This psychology textbook isn't like a lot of others in that it's not written in a textbook manner. The author sometimes writes in first person as he shares his own experiences and opinions about certain topics; in the end, it's written very much like a novel...it hooks the reader, which is more than I can say for a lot of other psychology textbooks.
