具体描述
"Themes, Issues and Debates in Psychology 2nd" edition cuts across the traditional boundaries within psychology between broad areas or fields of research (such as social and developmental psychology). The book's central aim is to integrate topics, theories and areas of research that are usually treated as separate and unrelated. This complements the topic-based approach by: broadening discussion of 'traditional' areas such as personality, abnormal behaviour, sex differences, and the history and nature of psychology; and, adopting a critical approach to these topic areas. This more critical approach is reflected in the frequent discussion of social constructionism, including the related areas of feminist, critical, and discursive psychology. These represent some of the book's recurrent themes. There is also discussion of philosophical/theoretical issues and debates, such as ethics, free will and determinism, and consciousness and the mind-brain relationship. Every chapter includes material familiar to students from other textbooks and from their classes. But there is also material that will be less familiar, designed to stimulate critical thinking and to encourage a broader, more integrated approach to essay-writing and seminar presentations. This second edition includes a new chapter on Theoretical approaches (Behaviourist, Cognitive, Psychodynamic, Social constructionist, and Evolutionary Psychology), and a chapter on Parapsychology. In addition, the thirteen chapters from the first edition have been fully revised and updated. With excellent chapter summaries, useful websites, and suggestions for further reading, "Themes, Issues and Debates in Psychology, 2nd edition", is ideal for all students of psychology, from A level to undergraduate, and those studying psychology as part of some other course.
