About this listen
Today's psychologist is apt to be very different from the image most people conjure up when asked to picture one - an image that almost always suggests Sigmund Freud or someone like him, complete with leather couch.
But as indebted as they may be to Freud's landmark explorations of our psychological landscape, modern psychologists are involved in far more than helping people cope with their inner demons. Instead, they are working in areas that now encompass every part of the process by which we develop and function as people:
- How we perceive, remember, and learn
- How we select our friends and partners and retain their affection and love
- The things that motivate us
Now you can gain a basic introduction to psychology - beginning with its historical context and looking ahead to some of the directions it is likely to take in the future - in this fascinating series of 36 lectures from an acclaimed teacher and author. It explores all of the many new areas that now fit comfortably beneath psychology's umbrella and the sophisticated new research methods that have emerged.
These lectures are both an excellent summary of a transformed profession and an ideal starting point for those eager to expand their understanding of the human mind.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Excellent for 1st year psych students or enthusiasts
lectures are 1/2hr so content is a general overview of main topics in a 1st yr psych textbook. Despite this I really enjoyed the content and the lecturer teaching style and his perspective on certain subjects

Excellent grounding in the topic of Psychology.
Dr. Martin makes it easy to listen and understand the information. He engages his audience with real life examples on the topics, which makes it very relatable. I have throughly enjoyed this experience and the series of lectures.

Wow that explains it.
The beginning is very hard and deep but persevere as it helps with the bulk of the book. Once you’re flowing through this set of lectures it’s great and the narrators style is easy to hear and enjoy. This book should be an essential for all to read or hear.
