西尔格德心理学
《西尔格德心理学:心理学导论》(第14版)一直被奉为普通心理学教科书的经典之作。Ernest R.Hilgard(西尔格德)教授自1928年便在耶鲁大学和斯坦福大学教授非常受欢迎的心理学导论课程。该书最早是1953年他本人在多年教学经验基础上,独自编写的普通心理学教科书。由于内容丰富、观点全面、着重启发学生思维、特别适合对初学者的教学和自学,该书一出版即广受赞誉,到1962年第三版时,销量已高达415 000册,成为当年最畅销的图书,很,陕就出版了法语。德语、意大利语、西班牙语等多种文字的译本。 为了不断充实心理学界新的研究内容和适应发展中不断出现的新分支领域,西尔格德心理学教科书从1967年修订开始增加新作者,并每隔三四年修订一次。虽然新作者都是各个领域的专家,但为了纪念Hilgard对此书和心理学教学的贡献,始终保留Hilgard为主要作者的地位。由于本书材料新颖、观点全面,我认为它对于心理学界无论哪一个分支的学者,都是一本不可或缺的重要读物。 强力推荐:Atkinson and Hilgard's Introduction to Psychology With Infotrac 英文原版火热发售 -

Thinking Fast and Slow
Daniel Kahneman, recipient of the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences for his seminal work in psychology challenging the rational model of judgment and decision making, is one of the world's most important thinkers. His ideas have had a profound impact on many fields-including business, medicine, and politics-but until now, he has never brought together his many years of research in one book. In "Thinking, Fast and Slow", Kahneman takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think and make choices. One system is fast, intuitive, and emotional; the other is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities-and also the faults and biases-of fast thinking, and reveals the pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and behaviour. The importance of properly framing risks, the effects of cognitive biases on how we view others, the dangers of prediction, the right ways to develop skills, the pros and cons of fear and optimism, the difference between our experience and memory of events, the real components of happiness-each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems work together to shape our judgments and decisions. Drawing on a lifetime's experimental experience, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking. He offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our professional and our personal lives-and how we can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble. "Thinking, Fast and Slow" will transform the way you take decisions and experience the world.
