Overview
The perfect supplement to introductory psychology texts, The Norton Psychology Reader includes the best contemporary writing on the study of human behavior. Editor Gary Marcus has carefully selected brief readings, mostly from popular trade books, that are both relevant and interesting to the introductory student.
"My aim is not to provide the last word, but the first, to introduce you to over three dozen of psychology’s finest thinkers—scientists and journalists with exceptional psychological insight. The selections in this sampler had to meet just two criteria: they had to be great psychology, and they had to be great writing. Although the top-notch pieces in this short book won’t teach you everything there is to know about psychology, my hope is that they will leave you wanting more."
