Basic Psychology

This third edition of Basic Psychologyreflects its title. It is the story of the basics of psychology and what psychologists do. It is intended as a one-semester text in general psychology. The focus is largely on vocabulary - helping students to learn the language of the discipline. In many ways it is a text of "psychology appreciation" in which we try to convey what psychology is - and what it is not.
