Dreams. We all have them. Good and bad ones. Some may be as simple
as a dream about going to the mall with friends. But others can be
much more complicated. Do you ever wonder what your dreams really
mean? Is your subconscious trying to tell you something more? This
gorgeous book guides young readers as they learn to decipher the
deeper meanings behind some of their craziest dreams. With a
primary focus on friendship, family, and school-and how dreams
often reflect uncertainty in these areas of life-Dream On touches
on the areas most important to middle grade readers. The book
includes a list of some of the most common symbols and imagery in
dream interpretation. From falling or forgetting to turn in an
assignment to being lost in the woods, readers will be able to
examine their subconscious in a new, exciting way. The book also
includes overviews and sidebars that explore the fascinating
science behind REM-sleep and how our brains work during the various
cycles of sleep that lead to dreaming.

Celeste thinks she is the happiest dog in the world. But when she
notices something different about her human, Rupert, she wonders if
things will ever be the same again. Charmingly illustrated, this
heart-warming story for children aged 3+ reflects some of the
feelings and experiences that a child whose parent or carer has
depression may face. When it comes to periods of low mood in a
parent or carer, children can often feel that they are to blame, or
even that the parent doesn't love them anymore. The story provides
reassurance by explaining what depression is and how it is possible
to find help. With a comprehensive guide for parents and
professionals written by Dr Pooky Knightsmith that provides advice
on discussing the topic with children, this is a truly valuable
resource that will be of interest to social workers, child and
school counsellors, psychologists, parents and foster parents.

September 2017 First exams: June 2019 The AQA GCSE Psychology
Student Book, written by respected authors with examining
experience, is a brand new edition of the UK's bestselling and
highly rated student book for AQA GCSE Psychology. This insightful
book has been completely updated and tailored specifically to
support students and teachers with all aspects of the new 2017 9-1
AQA GCSE Psychology specification, including perception;
development; language, thought and communication; brain and
neuropsychology; and psychological problems. With a strong focus on
the knowledge, application and evaluation skills needed for exam
success, this book is packed full of skills-building activities,
practical ideas and revision summaries to engage and inspire
students. It provides a firm foundation in research methods and the
essential information required to ensure students can deal
appropriately with the named key studies. It also provides teachers
with a clear route through the course, with plenty of ideas to use
in the classroom.
This book provides simple, clear, in-depth explanations of all the
topics in the AQA GCSE specification 4180 syllabus but it will
prove invaluable to students at many levels on many courses and to
the independent reader. It can be used as a stand-alone home study
course, as a classroom text, as a reference text or just for
pleasure for those who love to think about what makes people tick.
Psychology describes up-to-date research as well as some classic
psychology studies and even debunks one or two psychology research
myths. It leads the reader through all the topics in the syllabus
as a teacher would in a classroom setting. Topics are presented as
a series of lessons followed by "Check Your Understanding"
sections, which are designed to help you check and retain the
information in each lesson. An assessment record provided at the
end of the book will help you keep track of your progress. Lessons
are interactive with many opportunities to jot down your thoughts
and reactions, reflect on how a topic relates to your own
experience, discuss with other people and become more involved with
the material presented. Students can pinpoint the topics they are
studying for GCSE by using the table mapping the GCSE specification
against the lessons in this book. For those studying outside formal
classrooms there are guidelines about how best to approach your
studies. The book assumes that readers have no previous knowledge
of psychology and among the topics covered are: * Conformity and
Obedience - would you press a button to kill someone just because
you are told to do so? Many people would, it seems. * Sex and
Gender - do girls and boys, men and women behave so differently? If
so, why? * Memory - how does memory work and how accurate is it? *
Non-Verbal Communication - do we reveal our true feelings in our
body language? * Development of Personality - what exactly is
Anti-Social Personality Disorder? * Prejudice and Discrimination -
are we bound to discriminate against people who are unlike us? *
Learning - how to remove your fear of spiders/snakes/flying/open
spaces or anything else using the principles of learning. *
Aggression - is aggression born into us? Is it in our hormones? Or
do we learn to fight? * Research Methods and the Ethics of
Psychology - psychology is based on evidence, not just ideas. But
what type of study constitutes good evidence and how should we
treat the people in our studies?

A Young Boy's Workbook About Exploring Problems
Psychologists have always shone a torch, and often a spotlight, into many dark corners of the human mind. They study everything, from art preferences to altruism, coaching to criminality, jokes and humour to justice and honesty, as well as sex differences, schizophrenia and sociopathy.
Psychology can offer clear descriptions and explanations for all sort of phenomena. More importantly, psychological research can improve lives in a multitude of ways; many applied psychologists - e.g. clinical, educational, counselling and work psychologists - have the primary aim of making people more happy and better able to identify and realise their full potential.
Psychology 101 offers bite-size articles of psychological science from Adrian Furnham, a seasoned psychologist with a broad range of expertise. This book is the essential guide for anyone with an interest - either academic, professional or general - in demystifying and understanding the fascinating world of psychological history, theories, issues and beliefs.
