Weiten's PSYCHOLOGY: THEMES AND VARIATIONS, 8E International Edition maintains this book's strengths while addressing market changes with new learning objectives, a complete updating, and a fresh new design. The text continues to provide a unique survey of psychology that meets three goals: to demonstrate the unity and diversity of psychology's subject matter, to illuminate the research process and its link to application, and to make the text challenging and thought-provoking yet easy from which to learn. Weiten accomplishes the successful balance of scientific rigor and a student-friendly approach through the integration of seven unifying themes, an unparalleled didactic art program, real-life examples, and a streamlined set of learning aids that help students see beyond research to big-picture concepts. Major topics typically covered in today's courses are included, such as evolutionary psychology, neuropsychology, biological psychology, positive psychology, applied psychology, careers, and multiculturalism and diversity.
韦登教授的研究领域广泛，包括教育测量、陪审团裁定、归因理论、压力与应激、半球功能特异性以及教育教学技术。著有《心理学导论》（Psychology: Themes and Variations），与人合著有《人生的心理智慧》（Psychology Applied to Modern Life）。

There is no way to quantify the percentage of the brain that is "in use" at any specific time. And think about it, if 90% of the human brain consisted of unused "excess baggage," localized brain damage would not be a problem much of the time. In reality, damage in even very tiny areas of the brain usually has severe, disruptive effects(Zillmer, Spier, & Culbertson, 2008). The 10% myth appeals to people because it suggests that they have a huge reservoir of untapped potential. (查看原文)

这本书读了两遍，第一遍的时候除了痛苦没有其他词可以形容，那个时候英文差到令人发指。444元买入，想想就觉得心痛。要说书里面的内容，我现在其实根本记不起，且此书伴随的“考研”标签也变得不重要了，因为一本好书的影响会是持久的潜移默化吧。
