Rating:  Summary: Fantastic overview of psychology Review: Even if you're not enrolled in a psychology class, you may still want to read this text. Its lively writing style and reader-friendly interface make it easy for ANYONE to learn about how humans work. Although it lacks the cartoons and "wow" of Myers' text, I believe this is still one of the most authoritative psychology textbooks on the market.
Rating:  Summary: I am delighted by this book. Review: First of all, I am a computer scientist and I picked this book without taking a course. I was reading books like "Your erroneous zones", "Too much control", "Do what you are" and some others like those, when I decided I wanted have a deeper understanding of psychology.This book is great. I was first surprised to discover there was much more to psychology than Freud, Jung and the psychoanalysis. Just look at its table of contents. 1. The Science of Psychology. 2. The Biological Basis of Behavior. 3. Sensation and Perception. 4. States of Consciousness. 5. Learning. 6. Memory. 7. Cognition and Language. 8. Intelligence and Mental Abilities. 9. Motivation and Emotion. 10. Life Span Development. 11. Personality. 12. Stress and Health Psychology. 13. Psychological Disorders. 14. Therapies. 15. Social Psychology. Reading this book helped me understand myself and other people, and it has a lot of sources. There was not a chapter I found uninteresting. A great buy.
