well i think u didnt go thru the posts where i have mentioned the names of the books
well if a student in qta can have the access to foreign books (jahan almost esi books nahi milteen), u can find the books anywhere in pakistan. what u need is to ask the one in the book shop to bring u the book u need.

well the books are:
~PSYCHOLOGY the science of Mind and Behaviour by Richard Gross fourth edition.
(i recommend u this book. its a bit difficult but what u need is to go thru each chapter in a sequence, u cant skip a single chapter in this book. covers all ur section I and II)

the other book is:
~Essentials of Understanding Psychology by Robert S. Feldman fifth edition.

~the other one is Clinical Psychology by Timothy and Phares. sixth edition.


do check the links in my previous posts regarding concepts of psychology.

well. i m waiting for my results so cant say anything about my scores....do pray for my success........

wish u all the best.
regards!!!
