书籍简介

一本内容丰富、引人入胜的心理学指南，心理学是一门致力于理解人性的科学

真正推动我们决策的因素是什么？ 语言和记忆从何而来？ 为什么我们的思想有时似乎与我们作对？ 心理学家长期以来一直试图回答这些问题，试图理解人类的行为、感受和思想。 但如何探索如此难以捉摸的事物呢？

在这段引人入胜的历史中，有名专家尼基·海耶斯讲述了几个世纪以来和世界各地的心理学故事。 海耶斯介绍了重要的思想家，包括卡尔·荣格、安娜·弗洛伊德、弗朗茨·法农和丹尼尔·卡尼曼。 我们看到他们如何试图扩大我们的理解，从巴甫洛夫和他的狗到米尔格拉姆和他有名的电击实验，再到中央情报局的秘密精神控制项目。 海耶斯探讨了儿童发展、自卑感和创伤后应激障碍等关键概念，并展示了心理学研究如何被用于好的和坏的方面。

这本小历史揭示了不断进步的心理学研究、该领域如何随着时间的推移而发展，以及我们还需要学习多少。

A rich and engaging guide to psychology, the science devoted to understanding human nature

What really drives our decisions? Where do language and memory come from? Why do our minds sometimes seem to work against us? Psychologists have long attempted to answer these questions, seeking to understand human behaviour, feelings, and thoughts. But how to explore something so elusive?

In this fascinating history, leading expert Nicky Hayes tells the story of psychology across the centuries and around the world. Hayes introduces key thinkers, including 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 electric shock experiments to the CIA’s secret mind-control projects. Hayes explores key concepts like child development, the inferiority complex, and PTSD and shows how psychological research has been used for both good and ill.

This Little History shines a light on the ever-advancing study of psychology, how the field has evolved over time―and how much more we need to learn.
