FABER said Psych 101?. The book reminded me of my Psychology 101 course textbook from many years ago. It provided a nice introduction to human behavior but the relevance (true deep relevance) to the healing professions was missing. There was some superficial examination of how all this relates to the front line health provider, but I wish that more applicable information and recommendations could have been provided.. "prompt transaction" according to Mimsprompt transaction Mims408 I ordered the book in the middle of the night. The next morning, they informed me that the book was just purchased by another person but it was not updated on Amazon. They emailed me immediately and explained the situation. They also immediately processed the refund. Even though I was not able to buy the book they were very professional. I would definitely order from them again.. 08.

The book content itself just seemed very remedial to me; there were very few chapters that contained information I didn't already know. The writing was very casual and comes across as a self-help book rather than a college textbook.
