A rich and fascinating guide to psychology, the science dedicated to understanding human nature. Psychology is the science that deals with understanding human nature. Professional psychologists have long sought to understand behavior, emotions, and thoughts. In its interesting history, Nicky Hayes tells the story of psychology from its beginnings to today.

It introduces key thinkers such as Carl Jung, Anna Freud, Frantz Fanon, and Daniel Kahneman. We see how they tried to expand our understanding, from Pavlov and his dogs to Milgram and his famous electrical shock experiments, as well as the CIA's secret mind control programs.

This Little History takes us on a journey through the ever-evolving study of psychology, how the field has developed over time — and how much more there is to learn.
