Critical Thinking in Psychology : Separating Sense from Nonsense
Author(s): John Ruscio
RARE AND COLLECTIBLE | PSYCHOLOGY
Can your students distinguish between the true science of human thought and behavior and pop psychology? CRITICAL THINKING IN PSYCHOLOGY: SEPARATING SENSE FROM NONSENSE provides a tangible and compelling framework for making that distinction by using concrete examples of people's mistaken analysis of real-world problems. Stressing the importance of assessing the plausibility of claims, John Ruscio uses empirical research (such as the Milgram experiment) to strengthen evidence for his claims and to illustrate deception, self-deception, and psychological tricks throughout the text.
Thomson/Wadsworth, 2007. Second edition. A very good copy that is internally unmarked and is only marked by light edge rubbing and a single crease to the front wrap. Scans available if required.
