Psychology and Our Curious World

About this book

Your students are curious. Here is a text that shows them how psychology answers the questions they are asking.

In this introduction to psychology, Wind Goodfriend, Gary Lewandowski, Charity Brown Griffin, and Tom Heinzen investigate our everyday curiosities through psychological science – approaching the discipline?s core tenets with candor, humor, and wonder. Psychology and Our Curious World invites students to ask questions, think critically, and make evidence-informed decisions to better understand their unique world and that of others.

Amplifying the impact of their work, all the authors are donating a portion of their royalties to charities close to their hearts, including: The Trevor Project, Thurgood Marshall College Fund, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Wounded Warrior Project, and GlassRoots.
