Psychology: Perspectives and Connections - Looseleaf Summary

Psychology: Perspectives and Connections - Looseleaf by Gregory Feist

Just because we think something doesn't make it true. Psychology: Perspectives and Connections is designed to move students beyond what may seem obvious to them and have them reevaluate the thoughts and beliefs they bring to the course. Feist's accessible approach to science helps students challenge their assumptions, understand research, and recognize that in Psychology, no one perspective tells the whole story.
Challenging assumptions is the first step in thinking scientifically. While building a foundation in the concepts and principles of psychology, Psychology: Perspectives and Connections encourages students to think critically and question preconceived notions, putting their ideas and the ideas of others to the test.
Also available with this edition is McGraw-Hill Education's Connect, the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need when they need it and how they need it so that your class time is more engaging and effective. Connect is sold separately and does not come automatically with the purchase of the textbook.

Gregory Feist (Ph.D. University of California, Berkeley) is Associate Professor of Psychology in Adult Development at San Jose State University. Dr. Feist is widely published in the psychology of creativity, the psychology of science, and the development of scientific talent. One of his major goals is establishing the psychology of science as a healthy and independent study of science, along the lines of the history, philosophy, and sociology of science. His teaching efforts have been recognized by outstanding teaching awards at both the University of California, Davis and the University of California, Berkeley. Erika Rosenberg (Ph.D. University of California, San Francisco) served on the faculties at the University of Delaware and the College of William and Mary and currently is a researcher at the Center for Mind and Brain at the University of California, Davis. Dr. Rosenberg is an emotions researcher, health psychologist, and teacher of meditation.

Her current research interests include collaborative studies that integrate Western psychology with Buddhist practices for improving emotional and cognitive functioning.
