Readings in Introductory Psychology :

by Kathleen McDermott, Henry L. Roediger III

This is an upper-level introductory psychology text that incorporates cutting-edge material to present the core aspects of psychology. The authors use a set of five themes that are woven throughout the text to unite all of the material. These primary themes or emphases, introduced in Chapter 1, include: biological, learning, cognitive, developmental, and sociocultural factors. Then in each succeeding chapter the themes are (a) introduced at the beginning of the chapter in a set of Thematic Questions, (b) woven into the chapter material, and (c) summarized at the end in Themes in Review. New features have been added to this edition to create a more exciting and visually enhanced text.
