Synopsis
High level introductory psychology book with an attention to both the biological basis of psychology and the role of culture in shaping basic biological processes. Theories are provided in a conceptual framework that captures the excitement and tensions of the field. The book takes a micro to macro focus - from biology and neuroscience to culture. It demonstrates the integration between thoughts, feelings, motivations, social behavior, etc. Revised to include up-to-date research and a more balanced coverage with four new perspectives - psychodynamics, behavioral, cognitive, and evolutionary - introduced in depth to allow readers to begin conceptualizing psychological data.
