- Not for the beginner
Nice dictionary for the price but many words I have looked up are just not there.

If you are new to the subject perhaps give this one a miss, but if you have been studying the subject for some time and are looking for your first dictionary go for it.

Rating:

- The best quick and easy reference book around
Reber's text is thoroughly excellent; if possible, an improvement even on the second edition. Terms and perspectives are clearly explained with the occasional thought provoking comment thrown in (see the entry for 'binding'!). Moreover, Reber opts for a personal prose which distances the text from more stock, 'cookbook' competitors. Highly recommended and valuable at all levels of professional attainment. Buy it -- you won't regret it.

- An invaluable tool for the psychology undergraduate
This book saw me through my undergraduate years and is still useful now that I'm postdoctoral! The clarity of expression and the range of individual entries provide an excellent start to any essay or topic. There are also some gems which you'll come across by accident - try the entry for psychoceramics!

Rating:

- Good general dicitionary but don't rely totally on it
It is good for people who are new to Psychology. If you are a degree student, it is worth bearing in mind that it is of most use in the first year. As the course gets more advanced, you are unlikely to find many new terms in the dictionary. Since the field of Psychology is so wide, it is difficult for a dicitionary of this size to give detailed definitions and explanations: if these are what you want, you are better off looking them up in the glossary in a more specialised textbook.
