The brief edition of the classic text Social Psychology, Fundamentals of Social Psychology, tries to encapsulate the hallmark style and coverage of the text to make it more reader friendly and accessible. Gopa Bhardwaj tries to reshape the content and bridge the gap to contextualise the needs and requirements of the Indian readers and yet preserve the richness and taste of the work that has motivated students to take social psychology out of the classroom and into their lives for over four decades.
