Synopsis

Understanding Psychology provides a clear introduction to the work and ideas

of psychologists. It covers topics such as attachment, memory, anti-social

behaviour, gender and prejudice and considers how they relate to contemporary

society. The material is presented in a fresh, straightforward style with

particular appeal to those new to psychology.



Understanding Psychology provides complete coverage of the new AQA exam in

GCSE Psychology. Each chapter covers a topic on the specification and ends

with sample exam questions. It refers directly to the specification content,

including research evidence, methods and report writing. Together with the

generous use of photographs and diagrams and a comprehensive glossary, this

textbook provides the complete resource for the AQA student.
