Biological Psychology

Assuming no prior knowledge of biology, the text uses everyday experiences to fully explain complex concepts in an interesting and accessible way. This is complemented by a range of inventive pedagogical features and extensive full-colour illustrations to stimulate interest and help students to develop and test their understanding.

Features:

• A user-friendly approach guides students without a background in biology through the course of topics, without sacrificing depth or detail.
• Learning outcomes, section summaries and 'test your knowledge' questions are included to aid the learning process and allow students to manage their progress.
• ‘Signposts’ and ‘bringing things together’ highlight the connections within and between fields of study to encourage a wider and more considered understanding.
• An extended introduction and a new boxed feature on evolutionary psychology ensures students are informed by the debates within this topical area.
• ‘A personal angle’ introduces key figures connected with each area.
