Reviews

[Hemen Kalita · Rating 4 out of 5]

This all-inclusive book about human psychology is divided into five parts-

Part1- social psychology.
Part 2- evolutionary /animal psychology,
Part3 - neuropsychology and personality,
Part4 - memory and cognitive dissonance.
Part 5- practical future uses of psychology

Most of the ideas are pretty common now, but the book must have been profound when it first came out in the 80s.
