For this sixth edition of a high-interest undergraduate text, Myers (psychology, Hope College) has added a new chapter on the history of psychology, a timeline, and a revised chapter on personality, with more discussion of contemporary research on traits, the social- cognitive perspective, and the modern unconscious. There is enhanced coverage of cognitive psychology, and more material on multicultural and gender issues and the global perspective. The text's focus on critical thinking has been strengthened with boxes, stories, activities, and questions. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
