Description
This text is an attempt to put the human being in the centre of the traditional introductory psychology textbook by presenting research and facts in the context of a human story. Organized traditionally, it employs the narrative approach as a driving supplement to the otherwise traditional topical approach. An instructor's resource manual is available (0-13-170655-1).
