The 9th, 10th and 11th editions of this incredible textbook are all unexpected gems, particularly for self study. I'm an Engineer and in addition to robotics in the classroom, I design educational animations around various math, chemistry, physics, etc. formulas.

The astonishing thing about this textbook is that, although it is purportedly a Social Psych text, the pedagogy is centered around intelligent learners - students (frankly, I also look at this from the viewpoint of AI!) designing, testing and implementing their own learning strategies. Again unabashedly, it outshines MANY if not MOST Educational Psych and Instructional Design texts from this viewpoint alone!

Now the bad stuff. Like many publishers, new editions are regularly churned out, and students pay the price. As I evaluated the 10th vs. 11th editions side by side, I can't sincerely agree with reviewers who dismiss this new fine gem offhand as "the same." It simply ISN'T if you check the references, studies and bib, There are NUMEROUS updates with more current research, and many new web resources.

But the big BUT. Although the differences are far from cosmetic, they ARE generally academic. The next dimension is to take them in the context of price, where you can get a like new/ good used 10th for 10 bucks US vs. paying $130 to $180 for EITHER 10th or 11th new!!! I don't know about you, but I'm on a budget, and that is far from a trivial difference in price. In fact, I think I can say without exaggeration that it might be a buy/don't buy deal breaker for autodidacts.

SO, if you MUST use this as a class requirement, I've seen them selling back on instant book cash dot com and amazon buy backs - credits for a good (70 to 90%) recoup, and the material is the best you can buy.
