Students of psychology will find this a lively, well-illustrated book that answers a basic question: What is psychology about? Dealing with emotion, motivation, personality and intelligence, the psychological basis of behaviour and perception, this book helps us to understand how the mind works, what lies behind ordinary conversations and routine movements and consciousness, neuro-imaging, split-brain, innateness of language, cultural transmission of learning, the origins of higher mental activity, and personality research and intelligence.
