Narrado por: Anna Cordell

Take a fascinating trip through more than 2,500 years of groundbreaking ideas and discoveries that have shaped how we understand the human mind.

Psych. takes you on a journey through the rich and fascinating history of psychology – from the early philosophical musings of Aristotle and Plato to the game-changing theories of Sigmund Freud, Abraham Maslow, and Paul Bloom.

Created by a team of specialist experts, and consultant Tom Buxton-Cope, the book combines engaging and authoritative narrative, breaking down the major concepts and developments that have defined the field, and profiling the key figures who have made psychology what it is today.

Psych. makes complex ideas in understanding, memory, behaviour, and emotion easier than ever to grasp. It also explains all of the key breakthroughs – from psychoanalysis to cognitive science – that have made psychology one of the most vital sciences of our time.

In this fascinating audiobook, you will discover:

• The incredible global history of psychology from its roots in philosophy to the cutting-edge fields of developmental psychology and neuroscience
• Clear explanations of the most important theories of all time
• Biographies of the most important figures in the field – from Carl Jung to Jean Piaget
• The stories behind some of the most important (and often infamous) psychological studies of all time – including The Bobo Doll Experiment, The Stanford Prison Experiment, and the Milgram Obedience Study

In a world increasingly curious about the human mind, Psych. is an essential and timely reflection on the history of psychology and its potential impact on the future of humanity.
