"Like the very best guidebooks, the authors set the classic studies in context, helping the reader to understand why each study was conducted and how it was received by its contemporary audience. Just as important, they discuss the legacy of each study, showing how it opened up lines of theorizing and empirical research that have helped to create the vibrant and socially relevant discipline that we know today." -- Professor Anthony Manstead "Not only have I been able to delve deeper into experiments that I've studied before, but I was able to widen my knowledge to study other experiments in sufficient detail. The information provided throughout was highly detailed, clearly explained and well suited for its audience." -- Emily D'Souza
