The Psychology Book

Freud and Jung through to cognitive science and neuropsychology: the major ideas about how minds work are set out in sequence. Each theory is compressed into a short explanation paired with a graphic that maps its logic, followed by notes on the thinker and the context that produced the argument. Quotations and cross-references let a reader trace how one school answered or rejected another, which makes the volume usable as a revision aid and as steady general reading. In brief: • Thinkers and schools from early psychoanalysis to modern neuroscience • Diagrams that map the reasoning behind each theory • Short entries suited to revision or dipping in at random • Part of DK's Big Ideas Simply Explained series A reliable reference for psychology students, teachers and general readers, published by DK Publishing and available at Boipoka.
