`Could certainly be used as a stand-alone text. Aimed primarily at
advanced undergraduates, it could also be read by others who may be
prompted to identify yet further dimensions with which to map
contemporary social psychology and define their position in
relation to others' - The Psychologist This clearly structured
textbook presents a broad overview of the key issues that underpin
social psychology. These include: the nature of science and
`psychology as science'; descriptive, emancipatory and critical
theories; and the different ways in which social psychology is
applied in the social and political world. Drawing upon a number of
different perspectives, this volume will introduce students to the
important debates around what constitutes valid argument and
research in social psychology, its aims, scope and subject matter,
and the degree to which social psychology can be said to be itself
a social institution and a part of the network of social regulation
and definition. Theory and Social Psychology is one of four books
which form the core of The Open University's course Social
Psychology: Personal Lives, Social Worlds.
