Abstract:
"Psychologists have always shone a torch into many dark corners of the human mind. They study everything, from art preferences to altruism, coaching to criminality, and justice to honesty. But in our hyper-connected, post-pandemic world, less-understood issues are now emerging, which can be unsettling for people who are trying to make sense of the many changes happening around them. The language of psychology offers clear descriptions and explanations for all sorts of phenomena, including many of these more modern conditions. Knowing more about how these conditions manifest themselves and how they can be treated can help people to feel happier, and better able to identify and realize their full potential."--Amazon.ca.
