With Critical Thinking Applications
By Diane F. Halpern
Claremont McKenna College
Since the First Edition of this book appeared, professors have praised its visual presentation of concepts, accessible writing style, and solid research-based scholarship. PSYCHOLOGY: THEMES AND VARIATIONS is about the ideas and concepts behind the research studies. His straightforward style gets students to contemplate open-ended questions, examine their assumptions, and apply psychological concepts to their own lives. Wayne Weiten surveys psychology's broad range of content with three aims: to illuminate the process of research and its intrinsic relationship to application; to show both the unity and diversity of the subject, and to invite students to the study of psychology by respecting their ability to master its fundamental concepts. Integrative themes--including empiricism, theoretical diversity, sociohistorical contexts, multifactorial causation, cultural heritage, heredity and environment, and subjectivity of experience--are woven throughout the text to provide connections among the different areas of research in psychology. The book's dynamic, teaching-oriented illustration program further enhances these themes. Weiten reinforces concepts through exercises that appear at the end of every chapter. At the same time, the author presents topics in a hierarchical manner, giving students handles they can use to prioritize concepts within the chapter.

評分從大學時代起,我漸漸生齣瞭對同一科目下不同作者所編撰教材進行比較的興趣。起先是自己所學專業的科目,後來擴展到瞭專業之外的科目,更蔓延到瞭學術之外的領域。從個人角度而言,這不過是我久已有之的考據癖的一種錶現形式;從學習角度來講,比較意味著一種對知識深度加工的...

評分對於俺這種沒有任何心理學背景的人,讀起來痛苦。有好幾次都堅持不下去而中途擱置瞭。為啥?太籠統瞭,讀完後不理解,或者記不住,跟讀一本字典似的。門外漢的俺,痛苦之極,被逼去讀瞭各個分支的心理學書籍,諸如人格,認知,實驗等等,痛苦纔略有緩解。 這本書是不錯的,起...
