For most non-psychological partners, the purpose of learning psychology is nothing more than knowing yourself, understanding others and improving interpersonal relationships! However, there are too many books on the market, some are obscure and some are harmful to us. So I dedicate this original collection of psychology books to you, which will definitely meet the needs of undergraduates! For example:
? Some so-called success stories, self-help books or chicken soup for the soul are mistaken for psychology books. In fact, the advantage of those books is that they can inspire people, but they can't let readers know themselves objectively at all. Many times it will make people conceited, and the short-term effect is good, but it may not be beneficial to the long-term mental health development! Others seem to be keen on mind reading, but the so-called body language is extremely unpredictable to people. In addition to the stable cross-cultural stability of human facial expressions (the biological basis of evolution), many body languages have great cross-cultural differences, and it is extremely unrealistic for ordinary people to scientifically monitor physiological indicators with precision instruments. Moreover, people themselves have evolved the ability to estimate the psychology of others with unconscious information processing systems. Any attempt to actively predict at the level of consciousness is just superfluous, with little benefit!
? Some people are keen on the original works, such as the works of Freud, Jung, Adler, Honey and Maslow, but these books are generally incomprehensible, and many of them are not books of scientific psychology. Many of their conclusions are not based on objective experimental results, and their theories are unscientific. Therefore, it is actually a more scientific classification standard to classify such books as philosophy books. These books are of high value and can give people thought and inspiration. However, knowing yourself and others scientifically is not the first choice. Some people are keen on hypnosis and dream interpretation, all thanks to Freud. Hypnosis is just a kind of psychological suggestion, which has little significance in psychological consultation! Of course, it's a bit incredible and mysterious. Modern science can't give a scientific explanation! Regarding the interpretation of dreams, it is believed that dreams are repressed subconscious impulses or desires, which appear in consciousness in the form of a makeover. These impulses and desires are mainly the reaction of human nature and attacking instinct, which is undoubtedly nonsense. Of course, this is an attack on the ancestor of psychoanalysis. However, psychoanalysis has far-reaching influence, and there are indeed many desirable places, such as Freud's subconscious and psychological defense mechanism, Jung's social subconscious, Honeye's psychological adaptation model, Eriksson's social development stage and so on!
? Some people are keen on reading Abnormal Psychology, and their interest in other things is great for many people, but good books are not necessarily beneficial! For example, some people are psychologically sub-healthy, anxious, insecure and so on. After reading these books, they began to label themselves with various personality disorders and emotional disorders, stigmatizing themselves, and finally their symptoms became more and more serious. Depression and generalized anxiety disorder have become self-fulfilling predictions, which is not sad! Abnormal psychology is not suitable for beginners to read.
? Therefore, for these reasons, I have compiled this collection here, which is carefully selected from nearly 300 books, and it is excellent for students who just want to know about non-psychology majors. Many people will collect a lot of e-books, the quality is uneven, and they may not read much in the end. My collection can naturally get rid of this drawback.
? The books in this collection are mainly about social psychology, including the introductory book Psychology and Life, which is a must. There is a book called Personality Psychology by David Bass. Personality psychology is a research paradigm opposite to social psychology. Social psychology focuses on the powerful influence of social environment on people's behavior psychology, while personality psychology focuses on different performances in the same situation caused by people's internal characteristics. The style of Personality Psychology is completely different from those of personality psychology books that simply show psychoanalysis, behaviorism, cognitive psychologists and humanism. Intimacy is a book about interpersonal psychology of friendship, love and marriage, which belongs to social psychology. Attitude change and social influence is a book about attitude, conformity, obedience and persuasion, and it also belongs to social psychology. In fact, We Are All Strangers is an independent book, which comes from David Myers's Social Psychology. At present, most psychological books are about male psychology, and the book Female Psychology pays special attention to female psychology and gender differences. At present, the main research direction of psychology is cognitive psychology, especially books on cognitive neurology, which are too professional to recommend. Another relatively new direction is evolutionary psychology or sociobiology. Here is a book called Evolutionary Psychology, which has a lot to do with Darwin's theory of evolution. As for the research direction of psychology linked with economy, such as behavioral finance or financial psychology, books on behavioral economics are not recommended here, but they are not closely related to our daily life! Finally, I also published a book about natural science, sex and life: into the science of human nature! The books of positive psychology actually respond to the unscientific chicken soup for the soul and the negative research direction of psychological tradition, and study people's positive emotions and cognition with scientific methods; Because there is no suitable electronic version of the book, it cannot be uploaded. If you are interested, you can choose Netease Open Happy Classroom, which is actually positive psychology!
