About this listen
Today's psychologist is apt to be very different from the image most people conjure up when asked to picture one - an image that almost always suggests Sigmund Freud or someone like him, complete with leather couch.
But as indebted as they may be to Freud's landmark explorations of our psychological landscape, modern psychologists are involved in far more than helping people cope with their inner demons. Instead, they are working in areas that now encompass every part of the process by which we develop and function as people:
- How we perceive, remember, and learn
- How we select our friends and partners and retain their affection and love
- The things that motivate us
Now you can gain a basic introduction to psychology - beginning with its historical context and looking ahead to some of the directions it is likely to take in the future - in this fascinating series of 36 lectures from an acclaimed teacher and author. It explores all of the many new areas that now fit comfortably beneath psychology's umbrella and the sophisticated new research methods that have emerged.
These lectures are both an excellent summary of a transformed profession and an ideal starting point for those eager to expand their understanding of the human mind.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Absolutely brilliant!
This is the most comprehensive, interested and accessible intro to Psychology I have found so far. The syllabus is wider and in some instances also deeper than for other courses of this sort. The lecturer makes the material accessible by brining in research findings and real life examples - and he is a pleasure to listen to, unlike some others. 5 stars all around.

Introductory course
The lecture is good, it will give you an overview of the subject. It doesn't go deep into specific areas.

Great introduction to Psychology
The narrator allowed, even the most difficult parts, to seem understandable - and this course gave me a whole lot of that - of the human mind, that is.

Truly enjoyed learning about human behaviour
I liked listening to this beautifully presented lecture, and will listen to it again and recommend it to friends and family. Listening while at the gym just shows how easy this was to take in. It's a no-brainer! Enjoy!
