Está chuli, a ver te adentra en los descubrimientos y experimentos más conocidos y curiosos de la psicología y está muy bien explicado. La división que hace de las distintas ramas de la psicología también está genial y de verdad GRACIAS por nombrar a psicólogas e investigadoras relevantes 💜

Helpful but only because of my Psych exam coming up. I feel like the bunch of descriptions were a little too much it made the book boring but helpful at the same time.

I was excited for this book because it was only the second nonfiction book I have read that wasn’t an autobiography, and I have always enjoyed psychology. For some reason however, this book was mostly boring and I struggled a lot to stay focused while reading. It was informative though

Dirigé par le Dr Jennifer Wild, ce livre offre une introduction accessible et complète à la psychologie. Couvrant les théories classiques et modernes, il se distingue par sa clarté et sa structure innovante. Les résumés concis et les illustrations de Robert Brandt facilitent la compréhension. Un ouvrage agréable qui donne les clés pour approfondir le sujet.
Une excellente introduction à la psychologie, alliant accessibilité et profondeur, idéale pour les débutants comme pour ceux souhaitant actualiser leurs connaissances.
