Used ApA 5th ed October 21, 2009
Cheryl A. Jenkins (Savannah, Ga)
The book is in fair shape, all the pages are present and usable. There is a coffee stain but it takes nothing from the books function. It was sent and delivered in a timely fashion.
 Students don't waste your time October 15, 2009
Constance O. Dobbins
This book is very complicated and hard to follow. Although it was recommended by my college, there are better books out there to help students with APA format. Don't waste your money

A textbook September 25, 2009
J. Cottrell (Kansas City, MO)
This book was ordered as a textbook for a class online at Phoenix. I have found that having the physical book is helpful when writing papers. Nearly every class I have forces me to write papers in the APA format. This book is helpful in that I have the physical book and that it is clearly written and organized. I find chapter 5 and 6 to be the most helpful.
NOT USER FRIENDLY September 25, 2009
D. Bailey (USA)
I purchased this book becuase I have never written papers using the APA style. I had hoped that it would give me clear and concise direction on formatting the correct style. I was hoping to see examples of reference pages, etc. and they just aren't there. Trying to find your way around the book is kind of like trying to break an encryption code. You can tell this manual was written by academics and psychologists with no real desire to instruct. I found much better information and references on the internet after purchasing this book. I would suggest doing an internet search for APA style and use the many free references avaialable on the internet. Save your money and don't purchase this book.
