Social psychology (psychology)/Textbook

This unit uses a popular textbook by Baumeister and Bushman (2008) which has some useful accompanying electronic resources. The book offers a "self" perspective on "social psychology".

Future
Ideally, a free and open textbook would be used. There is a good start on Wikibooks, but it still needs considerable development.
