Psychology (5th Edition) by David G. Myers
Throughout its five editions, my vision for Psychology has remained the same: to merge rigorous science with a broad human perspective in a book that engages both mind and heart. Across the dozen years spent shaping this book, my aim has been to create a state of the art introduction to psychology's methods and findings, written with sensitivity to students' needs and interests. I aspire to help students gain insight into, and appreciate the wonder of, important phenomena of their everyday lives. I also want to convey the inquisitive, critical, and compassionate spirit in which psychologists do psychology. Believing with Thoreau that "Anything living is easily and naturally expressed in popular language," I seek to communicate today's scholarship with crisp narrative and vivid storytelling.
