Social Psychology

Social psychology is the study of social behaviour and the mental experience of people in social contexts.

Many authorities view it as occupying the area between sociology on the one hand and individual psychology on the other.The Longman Essential Psychology series provides comprehensive and concise coverage of all the major topics studied in undergraduate psychology courses throughout the UK, Europe and the USA.

Each volume deals with a core module and is written by an international list of contributors who are all actively involved in research.
