Overview

Why do ordinary people comply with harmful orders? What does chronic stress actually do to the body? How reliable is memory - really? Can personality change, and what does the science of mental disorder look like beneath the diagnosis labels? Introduction to Psychology takes these questions seriously. Seventeen chapters cover the full scope of the discipline - from neuroscience and sensation through learning, memory, cognition, and development to social psychology, personality, psychological disorders, and treatment - written in a voice that moves from accessible to rigorously scientific. Research is presented honestly: classic studies alongside the replications that revised them, contested findings examined rather than glossed over, and psychology treated as a living discipline rather than a settled list of facts.
