Lefton’s key mission is to get students actively learning and thinking critically. The exciting Third Canadian edition of this mid-level text continues to focus on delivering opportunities for “active learning” and demonstrating the relevance of psychological knowledge to real life. It speaks directly to students’ needs and interests and supports them in their first explorations of this multi-faceted and often complex discipline with outstanding study aids and supplements. This attractive text has a clear internal organizational structure and is laden with Canadian research and great examples. Lefton’s four major themes are: 1) Nature v. Nurture, 2) Diversity, 3) Biological/Evolutionary topics, 4) Critical Thinking. These form the heart and soul of the book. Themes are well developed and integrated throughout to provide a unifying framework to help students learn. A new boxed feature --Psychology in the Media – a Critical Look --appearing in every chapter will intrigue, cause discussion and also inspire critical thinking.
