The Human Mind

A Brief Tour of Everything We Know




A wonderfully entertaining overview of all of psychology by a world expert

Are you a human? Do you have a mind? Then this book is for you.

Nothing is more familiar and yet less understood than the human mind. It defines the experience of being human, and yet its workings contain some of the deepest mysteries ever encountered. Written by one of the world's greatest teachers of psychology, The Human Mind provides a masterful and riveting guide to all that we have learned since modern science began probing those mysteries. It shines new light on all that you take most for granted: everything you think and feel, everything you say and do, everything that makes you you.
