| Summary: | "Topics covered by this book include: the advantages of being human; how society shapes human beings; how human beings shape society; and you. Few books have been published which survey the entire field of psychology in language which most people can understand. This book has been written to fill the need described. Though it cannot cover all the information gathered, it presents some of the basic discoveries made by psychologists and social scientists about human behavior and the forces which influence our actions. It also attempts to apply this information to the major personal and social problems of our daily living." (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved). |
