Written by a team of Australian and New Zealand-based academics, each a subject matter expert, this edition contains updated case studies and a brand new feature, In the News, presenting interesting topics in Psychology. Additional local and global cases explore cross-cultural and Indigenous psychology, and probing questions encourage students to think critically about cases and to examine the research methods used in real-life examples.
Aided by its strong pedagogical framework, Psychology makes use of cutting-edge learning technology and interactive resources to provide a comprehensive learning solution.
