In the average psychology degree, there's a whole lot of writing to
be done, and much of it is very stylistically prescribed, and the
student new to psychology has to quickly develop and use a new
vocabulary and understand the demands of examinations, essays,
experimental reports, and longer works such as final-year research
projects. Furthermore, even research reports differ, depending on
whether they are write-ups of quantitative or qualitative research,
and so on.
This book is clear, well-structured, readable, enjoyable and
highly informative. Given that students have a lot to learn in the
course of their studies, any book that propels them forward has to
be welcomed. There are hundreds of volumes on writing, a handful of
which are focused on writing in psychology. This, in my opinion, is
by far the best of them.
