PLEASE FIX THIS ERROR IN YOUR BOOK
Second chapter, start of the 3rd paragraph down, the first sentence, it says:
“Another aspect of social psychology is that the behaviors do not even have to occur in order have an influence on others.”
Could you please identify the missing word between the words “order” and “have” in the provided text? The missing word is: “to”. I am unable to locate any other appropriate platform for submitting this feedback/suggestion/request. Therefore, I have chosen to post it here, hoping that the appropriate authorities will respond to me and rectify the error in your book simultaneously. I appreciate your time and attention to my request today. Have a blessed day!
P.S. other than that little error being present the book itself and its content are just fine. It’s a great book to read. Just fix the error! lol.
Meh
Kind of reads like a textbook. Doesn’t feel authoritative in some parts. Seems like a waste of time.
