Description

In this first Canadian edition of Discovering Psychology, Ashley Waggoner-Denton continues John Cacioppo and Laura Freberg's mission of creating an introductory psychology textbook that presents psychology as a hub science--a foundation for many other scientific fields. With an integrative approach and evidence-based learning tools, Discovering Psychology truly provides readers with a comprehensive overview of psychology and its many perspectives, without shying from controversies in the field. Updated with fully Canadianized content, updated research, and an approachable writing style, this first Canadian edition tackles all of psychology in a single text, giving readers a basis of psychology that will support their lifelong learning and understanding of human behaviour.
