Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association Review
This book is very helpful but confuses me at times since it has so many small mini indexes and sections, but besides that very helpful.
The APA manual (5th edition in this case) is sometimes difficult to follow. However, the concepts for proper written communication are extremely useful, especially at the doctoral learning level.
I had to buy this text as part of my Master’s program; however, in reading it, I’m questioning why. If you have Office 2007 for Students, the APA/MLA formatting is in the program. There is also a program called Paper Doctor that does your formatting for you. These are both cheaper than buying this textbook, and you’re not learning new info from scratch. You only have to go through simple tutorials.
The company that sent me the text was very efficient and timely. I’m just wondering if I wasted my money.
