 GREAT FOR STUDENTS July 7, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have found this dictionary extremely helpful while attempting to survive my degree in animal behaviour! Written by McFarland, the book breaks everything down simplistically for you to understand, while managing to keep the info content at a high level (all terms are also in alphabetical order for easy access). The information is correct and informative, and it's helped me get through a lot of assignments!
 Terrible! Do not buy! June 26, 2007

The first thing I looked up in this dictionary was a topic I knew something about (operant conditioning). The definition in this dictionary was inaccurate. I was shocked at how bad it was. I looked up a few more things related to conditioning and learning. Some were ok, some were totally wrong! I now feel I cannot use this book as it may mislead me in areas where I have no experience and so know no better. I am sure some of the content is accurate, but how can you tell without double checking with another source? I was very dissapointed as I thought it sounded a really good book and very useful. It is not. Do not buy.
