From the Back Cover:

Introducing The World of Psychology: Portable Edition – the first portable, modular introductory psychology text with fully integrated study materials and built-in connections to MyPsychLab™ — providing instructors and students the ultimate in flexibility and choice!

The World of Psychology has always done more to help students succeed than any other introductory psychology text. Recognizing that different students have different learning preferences and success strategies, this best-selling text offers a wide variety of field-tested support tools.

Now students have an even better shot at success, and professors have even more flexibility. The Portable Edition offers an innovative format with new study material and media integration.

• More than modular, the text is portable! This handy slipcase contains six booklets, each reflecting a major unit of the introductory psychology course. The portability gives students the option to read, study, and self-assess anywhere, anytime, and any way they choose!
• The text’s chapters have been redesigned and organized into numbered modules, giving instructors more flexibility about which material they assign to their students.
• Each booklet contains two to four chapters, with built-in Study Guides and Practice Tests directly following each chapter, so students have more opportunities for self-assessment and reinforcement of key concepts.
• Unique to the Portable Edition are integrated MyPsychLab icons throughout the text to help students make full use of this great online learning tool. The icons direct students to the rich media assets and self-assessment tools in MyPsychLab at the point in the text where these assets will help students the most.
