Psych.

The Story of Psychology

Take a fascinating trip through more than 2,500 years of groundbreaking ideas and discoveries that have shaped how we understand the human mind.

Psych. takes you on a journey through the rich and fascinating history of psychology – from the early philosophical musings of Aristotle and Plato to the game-changing theories of Sigmund Freud, Abraham Maslow, and Paul Bloom.

Created by a team of specialist experts, and consultant Tom Buxton-Cope, the book combines engaging and authoritative narrative with stunning visuals and a clean, modern design, breaking down the major concepts and developments that have defined the field, and profiling the key figures who have made psychology what it is today.

Packed with eye-catching photography, bold graphics, and thought-provoking quotes, Psych. makes complex ideas in understanding, memory, behaviour, and emotion easier than ever to grasp. It also explains all of the key breakthroughs – from psychoanalysis to cognitive science – that have made psychology one of the most vital sciences of our time.

In this fascinating book, you will discover:

• The incredible global history of psychology from its roots in philosophy to the cutting-edge fields of developmental psychology and neuroscience
• Clear and simple graphic explanations of the most important theories of all time
• Biographies of the most important figures in the field – from Carl Jung to Jean Piaget
• The stories behind some of the most important (and often infamous) psychological studies of all time – including The Bobo Doll Experiment, The Stanford Prison Experiment, and the Milgram Obedience Study

…in a stunning, giftable package with boldly printed page edges.

In a world increasingly curious about the human mind, Psych. is an essential and timely reflection on the history of psychology and its potential impact on the future of humanity.
