Praise for the Book

" As a social psychologist, former child refugee, and as an adult belonging to several stigmatised groups, I have struggled to recommend social psychology textbooks to my students. Too often they treat decolonisation, social and material justice as tagged-on perspectives, providing no more than basic lip-service to their existence and influence. I have often thought that I might be searching for the impossible. This book has made the impossible possible. It will be responsible for educating and transforming future generations of social psychology students.

" This book takes a revolutionary approach to social psychology. It disrupts the hegemony of traditional social psychology in a constructive and an enlightened manner. The writing style and level of academic scholarship, coupled with the underlying ideology of each chapter, are so superlatively good that I would not hesitate to recommend this text to academics and students around the world.
– Maboe Mokgobi, Monash South Africa, South Africa.

" A gift to students and established scholars alike. Hodgetts and colleagues have developed an account of social psychology that is rejuvenating and inspiring. This is social psychology as it should be.
– Kieran O’Doherty, University of Guelph, Canacite>

" This textbook presents a locally responsive, yet internationally-situated, approach to social theory, integrating key thought traditions in psychology. Expertly crafted pedagogical features provide students with a gateway to the intellectually rigorous content.
– Jade Le Grice, The University of Auckland, New Zealand

" This book has done more to rekindle my enthusiasm for social psychology than any other textbook. Moving away decisively from the tired recycling of perspectives and even content that characterise so many of its competitor titles, Social Psychology and Everyday Life returns the discipline to the urgency of the world we live in today.
– Desmond Painter, Stellenbosch University, South Africa

" This is a remarkable textbook. Written in engaging language, it offers a comprehensive review of all major areas of social psychology, with lots of interesting and relatable examples.
