Psychology: Core Concepts

 

The Discovering Psychology Edition

 

 

 

Psychology: Core Concepts has been a best-seller through five editions. Its focus on the key questions and core concepts of psychology--along with a wealth of high-interest features such as "Psychology in Your Life," "Using Psychology to Learn Psychology," and "Do It Yourself" boxes... MORE--has given students the tools and the motivation to master introductory psychology. 

 

 Now, this well loved text is available in this special edition tied to the award-winning "Discovering Psychology" video series, produced by WGBH Boston with the American Psychological Association.  Author Phil Zimbardo narrates the video series, as leading researchers, practitioners, and theorists probe the mysteries of the mind and body and bring psychology to life for introductory students.

 

Psychology: Core Concepts: The Discovering Psychology Edition offers the same content as the Fifth Edition, and adds a built in Discovering Psychology viewing guide at the end of each chapter. Each new copy of this text comes packaged--at no additional cost­--with access to MyPsychLab, an online tool that includes links to the "Discovering Psychology" videos, as well as interactive viewing activities tied to the videos. Students can go to MyPsychLab to launch the videos and then either complete the viewing activities in their textbook or do the assignments online. There's also an Index of Multimedia that makes it easy for instructors to find and launch specific video segments for classroom presentation.
