About the Book

The continuing study of behavior can help psychologists shed light on the widest range of events and issues. Psychology Around Us employs an organizational approach designed to uncover the fascinating relationships between concepts in seemingly disparate fields. It addresses the enormous impact that the field of cognitive neuroscience now has on the study and understanding of mental life and behavior. Chapters contain Cut-Across sections on the development, brain function, individual differences, and dysfunctions that occur in that realm of mental life.The Brain-Behavior Circle feature also centers on a common everyday activity that helps a psychologist clarify the remarkable brain events that give life to the activity.
