This is the third volume in the author’s highly regarded and best-selling series of books on popular psychology. Like its predecessors, Practical Psychology looks at recent trends and research discoveries in psychology, social psychology, and neuroscience with an eye to how these studies’ findings can be applied to everyday life and to the pragmatic solution of everyday problems. Its main focus is reading comprehension, but its essays and listening passages are packed with information, advice, and insights that naturally give rise to self-reflection, critical thinking, and friendly discussion, making Practical Psychology an excellent choice for intermediate to advanced conversation and communication lessons. Written in natural, straightforward English, with key words highlighted and pre-explained, this compelling new text makes complex, even abstract concepts comprehensible and accessible to all. Not a “self-help” book per see, Practical Psychology should nevertheless prove helpful to young learners in all kinds of ways.
