This essential course-in-a-book takes you on a fascinating journey through the major ideas, theories, and discoveries that have shaped the field of psychology.

From the workings of memory and emotion to the roots of personality, trauma, and mental illness, learn all of the fundamentals of psychology across nine structured modules - written by a team of subject experts. Discover the foundational theories of Sigmund Freud and Daniel Kahneman, the insights of Carl Jung, Stanley Milgram, and Elizabeth Loftus, and explore how modern neuroscience and cognitive science are reshaping our understanding of the "self".
