This lively, user-friendly text shows students that the psychology of learning can offer insight into their own behavior. Providing the content instructors need and the humor, examples, readability, and practical applications students want, the author builds on previously covered material and thoroughly defines, describes, and illustrates each topic using everyday experiences. The Third Edition emphasizes learning as a biological mechanism that has evolved because of its survival value.
