The Psychology Book: Big Ideas Simply Explained
Summary: Clearly
explaining more than 100 groundbreaking ideas in the field, The
Psychology Book uses accessible text and easy-to-follow graphics and
illustrations to explain the complex theoretical and experimental foundations
of psychology.
From
its philosophical roots through behaviorism, psychotherapy, and developmental
psychology, The Psychology Book looks at all the greats from
Pavlov and Skinner to Freud and Jung, and is an essential reference for
students and anyone with an interest in how the mind works.
Angie's Comments: If you are a student taking a psychology class
or just interested in psychology, this is a great book. It is best used as a
reference, looking up people or ideas that you are interested in, rather than
reading the book cover to cover. The ideas are explained as well as the
theorist, with a short biography of the theorist, and you can check out the “See
also” for related information in the book. Quick and easy explanations, usually
only two pages long.
