An in-depth look at some of the newest issues in psychology and how they can shape our lives, at home and at work - from AI and eco-psychology, to the psychology of social media.

Psychologists have always shone a torch into many dark corners of the human mind. They study everything, from art preferences to altruism, coaching to criminality, and justice to honesty.

But in our hyper-connected, post-pandemic world, less-understood issues are now emerging, which can be unsettling for people who are trying to make sense of the many changes happening around them.

The language of psychology offers clear descriptions and explanations for all sort of phenomena, including many of these more modern conditions. Knowing more about how these conditions manifest themselves and how they can be treated can help people to feel happier, and better able to identify and realize their full potential.

Written to accompany the highly successful Psychology 101, this book takes a closer look at 50 of the emerging concepts in modern psychology. From the psychology of passion to unconscious bias, The New Psychology explains how these issues impact both our personal and professional lives, helping you to reassess the pressures facing you at work and pursue a more fulfilling work/life balance.
