The Little Book of Psychology By Emily Ralls, Caroline Riggs

This illuminating little book will introduce you to the key thinkers, themes and theories you need to know to understand how the study of mind and behavior has sculpted the world we live in and the way we think today. How does the brain remember faces? What makes us choose one decision over another? Where does language come from? Can we really measure intelligence?She notices that she does not have a penis, while the male members of her family do, and she wishes that she too had one. Freud thought that the girl's logical reasoning would be to believe that her mother had cut off her, the girl's, penis. Once the girl realizes it isn't possible for her to have a penis, she represses her rage against the mother and replaces her desire for a penis with a desire to have a baby.” DK’s The Little Book of Psychologyanswers all these questions and provides an insight into this fascinating field of science. Whether you are a student, an expert, a novice, or have a general interest in the human mind, this portable guide is the perfect choice to start exploring and understanding psychology. A lovely little overview of the foundation of modern psychology. Essentially covers the basics of what I learnt at A level and would highly recommend to anyone currently studying psychology at that level. The whole concept of the psychosexual stages through which our conscious and unconscious minds develop seems completely absurd. If a child becomes fixated with a particular stage of their development, problems relating to key events in that stage can arise in adulthood. Take the phallic stage (3-6 years old) for example, in which the key events are genital stimulation and experiencing the Oedipus/Electra complexes and the problems in adulthood, associated with fixation on these events are jealousy, vanity and unhealthy sexual desire. During the ‘Electra complex’ a girl is thought to have ”penis envy”.

If you want to know your Freud from your Jung and your Milgram from your Maslow, strap in for this whirlwind tour of the highlights of psychology. A short, succinct guide that will teach you about the key thinkers, themes and theories you need to know to understand how the study of mind has sculpted the world we live in and the way we think today. The perfect introduction to the world of psychology for those wanting to gain a general understanding of the topic without having to read a long textbook. A friendly and accessible whirlwind tour of all the key players and theories that you should know about

This illuminating little book includes topics on the early thinkers and the birth of modern psychology; famous (and often controversial) experiments and their repercussions; the ethics of psychological studies; recent developments in the modern fields of cyber psychology and much more. With so many different mental health conditions and understandings of the human mind still developing it is interesting to have an understanding of just how far things have come in the field of psychology and a little about some of the beliefs of the major names in the field and that is exactly what this book sets out to do. This is not a book which is aiming to delve deep into psychology but is instead to give an overview of some theories, beliefs and understandings of psychology and enable the reader to gain some comprehension of the field so they can see if this is something they may wish to do a deep dive on. This does provide a good overview of the main areas of psychology, with excellent examples. From the early foundations of Freud to Skinner and Maslow, and some of the most well known theories and experiments, this is an amazing introduction. Is it just me or does that sound like completely fabricated horseshit? It gets better. Freud further suggests that girls/women never fully resolve their penis envy…. Take that, ladies!
