Psychology is a fascinating subject which attracts much interest
from both students and the general public. It covers the whole span
of human activity from childhood development, to the study of the
elusive concept of consciousness to disorders, such as those based
around anxiety, mood and eating. The scientific study of psychology
also requires an understanding of research methods and conceptual
issues. The Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Psychology addresses all
these issues and more, and is a core reference for any student of
psychology. It is authoritative and accessible, and covers the
basic curriculum content of a degree course along with more
specialised material in areas of widespread interest. This
important reference book presents more than 1500 different entries
grouped into 8 thematic topic areas, and on a range of levels from
brief definitions to more substantial discussions which allow the
reader to obtain a fuller grasp of important terms and concepts.
For key issues, the explanation is supported with illustrations,
tables and photographs, and relevant contemporary references are
provided throughout to allow the reader to pursue more widely their
particular interests. The book is comprehensively cross-referenced
for ease of use.
