Colin Cooper - By: Epic Muse, 15 Mar 2007
Colin Cooper was one of my lecturers at Queen's University Belfast. He is a brilliant man (and a very nice one to boot!).

This book provides an excellent introduction to Individual Differences - it is written in an accessible style, & alll assertions are backed-up by scientific research.

I warmly recommend this text to anyone seeking to further their knowledge in this fascinating area of psychology.
As sharp as Occam's Razor! - By: , 02 Jul 2000
An informative & enjoyable trip through personnality & psychometrics. Far from having to plough through endless information to try & understand these topics, this book provides an excellent framework for a good understanding of the subject. With reference to empirical research, evaluative criticisim, & self-assessment qusetions the book provides a perfect starting point with directions to more in depth literature. All this & time for the odd joke makes this a must buy text!
As readable as Harry Potter! - By: , 28 May 2000
Individual Differences was recommended to me by a friend so that I might better understand personality, intelligence & psychometrics. I now understand these concepts thanks to the easy, readable style of writing. As well as listing theories the author also evaluates them, referring to the emperical literature - a pleasant change.
