An ideal text for undergraduate- and graduate-level courses, this
accessible yet authoritative volume examines how people come to
know themselves and understand the behavior of others. Core
social-psychological questions are addressed as students gain an
understanding of the mental processes involved in perceiving,
attending to, remembering, thinking about, and responding to the
people in our social world. Particular attention is given to how we
know what we know: the often hidden ways in which our perceptions
are shaped by contextual factors and personal and cultural biases.
While the text's coverage is sophisticated and comprehensive,
synthesizing decades of research in this dynamic field, every
chapter brings theories and findings down to earth with lively,
easy-to-grasp examples.
