Overview :

'Now in its sixteenth edition, Atkinson &amp Hilgard's Introduction to Psychology has been fully revised
and updated to reflect all recent research developments, theories and ideas, whilst also retaining all of the
qualities which have established it as a leading undergraduate psychology textbook over the past five
decades, including its highly accessible and engaging student-centred approach. The established author team
of Susan Nolen-Hoeksema, Barbara Fredrickson and Geoffrey R. Loftus has been joined by Christel Lutz
(University College Utrecht), who has helped to add a fresh European influence, and thereby create a truly
introductory textbook. The 'Cutting Edge Research' box features and 'Seeing Both Sides' essays which
conclude each chapter have been fully updated and replaced throughout, using contributions from a range of
experts across the globe, and really help to bring the text to life for students.
