James Breese

Psychology and Everyday Life

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Originally published in 1971, this title was intended to bridge the gap between the expert and lay use of the word 'psychology' at the time. The organisation and presentation of subject matter in this introductory book was prompted by a series of discussion lessons with sixth formers and lectures to students in colleges of further education.
