Christian Jarrett Boeken

Pavlov’s Dogs, Psychoanalysis, Milgram’s Obedience Study, and Beck’s Cognitive Therapy? Sure, you know what they all mean (that is, you’ve certainly heard of them), but do you understand enough about these psychology theories to join a dinner party debate or dazzle the bar with your knowledge? 30-Second Psychology takes the top 50 strands of thinking in this fascinating field, and explains them to the general reader in half a minute, using nothing more than two pages, 300 words, and one picture. While unraveling the inner workings of the human mind it also introduces many of the luminaries in the field along the way, including William James, Aaron Beck, and (of course) Sigmund Freud. From Behaviorism to Cognitivism, what better way to get a handle on your inner demons?

Het menselijk bewustzijn en de verborgen motieven die onze gevoelens, onze manier van denken en ons gedrag bepalen, vormen het onderwerp van Psychologie. De verhelderende, uit het leven gegrepen voorbeelden en de vele experimenten en tests helpen om inzicht te krijgen in de wijze waarop uw hersenen werken.

Examines the human mind and brain, exploring memory, intelligence, personality and relationships as well as depression, anxiety, schizophrenia and more unusual conditions and provides advice on everything from pick-up lines to developing creativity. Original.

Be Who You Want tells the story of how our personalities are formed but shows that they are not fixed - they are malleable and voluntary. Christian Jarrett gives us the tools to shape our traits in the ways that will benefit us most.
