"Excellent intro guide"
I have no background in psychology. The highest level of scientific study I've done was Grade 12 Chemistry, Biology and Maths B, and that was almost ten years ago.
Nevertheless I found this incredibly easy to understand. It was extremely interesting, and the narrator was very engaging.
I have some issues with production, often they would repeat 30 seconds or a minute of narration.
I understand the complaint someone made about this being superficial, but is only meant to be an introductory guide, and I think it sets out to do that very well. It has in fact whet my appetite for more, and I intend to do some more detailed study into some areas raised by the book.4 of 4 people found this review helpful -
"This was great for my studies"
I got it 2 weeks before an exam in Introduction to Psychology, and many of the things mentioned in the book were on the exam. It really helped me. Though I would recomment that one listens to it carefully, because it is a lot of information, and I had to listen to some chapters several times to memorize everything. The female voice was very pleasant too.

"Hard to stop listening to!"
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?I was captivated by the information and presentation in this book. There was so much useful information on almost everything to do with the mind. I gave me an overview and now I can choose which areas I would like to study more. However I am not a student of Psychology, I just love literature on it.
I recommend this to anyone that is even slightly interested in the way the mind works, how the human race developed with explorations of the mind or just to improve life by understanding our race.
The presenter was also fantastic. I will be looking for more of her readings.

"Good beginning high school textbook..."
This text lays a good beginning foundation for basic knowledge in psychology. I would not recommend it for anyone but the earliest beginner in the quest for learning in the realm of psychology, but it hits the mark it aims at.
