The work Introduction to Psychology is an important endeavor that gathers fundamental knowledge from many different fields of psychology.
The first volume refers to general topics of the science of psychology, such as its roots and schools of thought, fields, research methods, perspectives, and ethics. It then focuses on the functions studied by the field of cognitive psychology and addresses topics such as senses, brain function, perception, memory, thought, representation, language, intelligence, and knowledge.
This work opens new horizons in the science of psychology. The presentation of theories, the citation of research data, the critical examination of views, and vivid examples demonstrate that psychology is an evolving science, which expands into a multitude of phenomena, encompasses multiple and multidimensional approaches to study, and seeks to develop knowledge in a dialectical and critical manner.
These elements make the work particularly interesting even for non-specialist readers who wish to learn about the science of psychology. Specialist readers, on the other hand, will come into contact with the history and development of theories in psychology and will gain a solid foundation upon which to build their further knowledge of the subject.
