520 1 $a"A lot of what is marketed to the public as psychology is actually quite unscientific. Self-help books, television specials, and articles in the popular press all serve to obscure the true intellectual and scientific premises on which the field of psychology is based. At the same time, the serious work of great psychological thought is lost to the average person. To counteract the tide of misinformation about what psychology really is, this book provides a concise guide for anyone seeking to understand this discipline's true scientific nature. High school and college students as well as the interested lay reader will want to consult this work to understand what is good in the popular presentation of psychology and what is unworthy of serious attention."--BOOK JACKET.
