New Book Release: The Handy Psychology Answer Book

The Handy Psychology Answer Book by Lisa Cohen

Famous psychologists -- Freud, Jung, Adler, Erickson -- were once known to almost everyone and there was a time that basic psychological ideas permeated the popular culture.

Ever since then, psychology has become either all entertainment with little substance or pure substance but dryly academic. This book incorporates the best of both approaches. It provides real substance in an accessible, engaging and entertaining way.

Featuring more than 800 answers to questions of how the human mind and the science of psychology really work, this fascinating discussion gives you the real facts of modern psychology along with fun factoids and thought provoking insights into what motivates our behavior.

The Handy Psychology Book covers the fundamentals of psychology, the history of psychology, plus the psychology of money, sex, morality and everyday living. This intriguing exploration gives insight into the current science of the mind by answering questions such as What makes a marriage last? Why do toddlers have temper tantrums? and Are people happier in wealthier countries?
