Description
With an author team equally at home in the classroom, in the lab, or on the bestseller list, Introducing Psychology is a textbook written to keep students turning the pages. It offers expert coverage of psychology’s scientific foundations, but communicates with students in a style that’s anything but that of a typical textbook. The new edition, featuring new coauthor Matt Nock, keeps the level of excitement and engagement high, with quirky and unforgettable examples, and reminders throughout that the human perspectives and the critical thinking skills required to study psychology will serve them well in college and throughout their lives. The new edition also has its own dedicated version of Worth’s thoroughly redesigned online course space LaunchPad and new Data Visualization Activities aimed at building students’ quantitative reasoning skills.
