A compelling and accessible new perspective on the modern science of psychology, based on one of Yale's most popular courses of all time
How does the brain?a three-pound wrinkly mass?give rise to intelligence and conscious experience? Was Freud right that we are all plagued by forbidden sexual desires? What is the function of emotions such as disgust, gratitude, and shame? Renowned psychologist Paul Bloom answers these questions and many more in Psych, his riveting new book about the science of the mind.
Psych is an expert and passionate guide to the most intimate aspects of our nature, serving up the equivalent of a serious university course while being funny, engaging, and full of memorable anecdotes. But Psych is much more than a comprehensive overview of the field of psychology. Bloom argues that a number of widely accepted theories in the field are probably wrong, and he reveals what psychology can tell us about the most pressing moral and political issues of our time?including belief in conspiracy theories, the role of genes in explaining human differences, and the nature of prejudice and hatred.
Bloom also shows how psychology can give us practical insights into important issues?from the treatment of mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety to the best way to lead happy and fulfilling lives. Psych is a riveting guide to the most important topic there is: it is the story of us.

Buch (Gebundene Ausgabe)
Thorough introduction to psychology
Yale professor Paul Bloom made 'Intro to Psychology' digestible and fun. Some teachers and professors excel in making an interesting topic so boring that you want to quit after the first page. Paul Bloom luckily isn't one of them. This book give you a great foundational understanding about the vast studies of psychology and does it in such an engaging way that you have no trouble to keep on reading and turning page after page. A feat that not many foundational books about any topic can claim. So, go read if it's up your alley.
