Kurzbeschreibung
Why Things Go Right. The Science of Psychology: An Appreciative View by Laura King (University of Missouri at Columbia) is the first text to bring a truly appreciative view of psychology--as a science and for exploring behavior--to introductory students. It is built around the idea that students must study the discipline of psychology as a whole, that the sub-disciplines are intricately connected, and that human behavior is best understood by exploring its functioning state in addition to its potential dysfunctions. For example, imagine that you have been asked to create a science of "watchology." You have two watches that both have had the unfortunate "trauma" of being left in the pocket of someone's jeans through the washer and dryer. One watch has suffered the worst possible fate--it no longer tells time. The other has emerged from the traumatic event still ticking. Which watch would you use to develop your new science of watchology? Clearly, the working watch will help you understand watches better than the broken one. What does watchology have to do with psychology? Quite simply, in psychology as in watchology, it makes sense to start with what works: to gain a general understanding of human behavior and then apply that knowledge to those who have emerged from life's experiences in dysfunction.

Great Textbook!
20. September 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Very easy to follow! Uses decent examples. Has a ton of vocabulary, but allows for easy highlighting! The website listed doesn't work anymore unfortunately, so that's not a good thing. Great pictures too!

Well put together text book
24. Januar 2009
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is a well written text book. It does focus on the positive (what went right) aspect of psychology and not as much on the "what went wrong".

Great College Textbook
4. Januar 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This was the textbook for Introduction to Psychological Science at the University of South Florida in the Fall of 2010. This book is different from other psychology textbooks because it truly is `An Appreciative View'. It takes a positive perspective on psychology as a science that can improve peoples lives. Studying was actually enjoyable with this book. For the most part it is written in plain english so it may also make a great psychology reference book for the layman; I'll be keeping my copy rather than selling it back to the book store.
