"The essays are engaging and the stories the authors tell are delightful. I especially like the illustrations of what is ′real′ and what is ′not real.′ Convincing college students that reality is socially constructed is no easy task, and stories that the students can ′get′ help enormously. I plan to continue to use this exciting and insightful text."
- Barbara Trepagnier, University of Texas
"I was initially attracted to this book because it was organized in exactly the way I had been organizing my course in social psychology - to find it all in one book was great. The section on theory is among the best I′ve seen; additionally, students really LIKE this book, and if they like it, they read it. My thanks go out to O′Brien and Kollock for their writing of a book that fills what was a huge gap in the social psychological textbook market."
