Welcome to Psychology. Relationship between Psychology and Education

      Аннотация: The book provides fundamental knowledge of psychology as a field of study alongside its numerous specialties. The history of psychology as presented in the book shades light on the road map toward the development of psychology: from the mental approach of structuralism and functionalism through the unconscious approach of psychoanalysis to animalistic behaviourism, humane approach of humanism and the return to mentalism (cognition) of cognitive psychology. The seven unifying themes that cut across different areas of specialization in psychology are well elucidated. The goals of psychology are presented in a form that researchers of all psychological orientations and allied social sciences would want to grab a copy. It provides a solid foundation in psychology to scholars.
