Psychology: A Concise Introduction by Richard A. Griggs (Author) provides an affordable yet authoritative alternative for introductory psychology courses. This fourth edition, published on January 10, 2014, by Worth Publishers, offers a rich survey of the field’s fundamental ideas and supporting research. The book covers key topics with a robust, carefully developed supplements package designed to enhance both student learning and instructor teaching. At just $39 (price to the bookstore), it stands out as an exceptional value, especially considering its comprehensive content. The new edition is thoroughly updated, particularly in areas like neuroscience, and includes coverage of topics influenced by the release of the DSM-5, all while maintaining its trademark conciseness.
