History doesn’t have to be boring and dull, and this textbook is living proof with coverage of interesting topics ranging from the controversial use of IQ tests at Ellis Island to the psycho-dynamics of chewing gum. A market leader for over thirty years, A History Of Modern Psychology 10th edition (PDF) has been praised for its comprehensive coverage and biographical approach.
Focusing on modern psychology, the ebook’s coverage begins with the late 19th century. Successfully avoiding dry narrative, the authors personalize the history of psychology not only by using biographical information on influential theorists but also by showing you how major events in those theorists’ lives have affected the authors’ own ideas, methods, and approaches. Substantial updates in this 10 edition include discussions of cognitive neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, and positive psychology. The result is a ebook that is as timely and relevant today as it was when it was first introduced.
