책 소개

The science makes it the book for you.
An introduction to psychology doesn’t have to be science-challenged to be student-friendly. After all, what more powerful tool is there for captivating students than the real science behind what we know? Dan Schacter, Dan Gilbert and Dan Wegner’s skillful presentation centers on a smart selection of pioneering and cutting-edge experiments and examples. They effectively convey the remarkable achievements of psychology (with the right amount of critical judgment) to introduce the field’s fundamental ideas to students.

The writing makes it the book for your students.
But it is not just the science that sets Psychology apart-its the way Schacter, Gilbert, and Wegner write about it. Each is a world-renowned researcher and accomplished classroom teacher. Each has written popular books that get to the heart of what fascinates people about psychology. Read any chapter of Psychology-any page-and you’ll see why. Bracing, easy to read, rich with captivating examples that make the ideas clear, concrete and relevant, Psychology communicates in a way that elevates and inspires students. It is anything but just another textbook.

저자(글) Schacter, Daniel L.

미국 하버드대학 심리학과 교수. 미국 노스캐롤라이나대학을 졸업하고, 캐나다 토론토대학에서 석사ㆍ박사 학위를 받았다. 1991년 하버드대학 심리학 교수로 임명되었고, 1995년부터 2005년까지 심리학과 학과장을 지냈다. 그의 연구는 인간 기억의 인지적 측면과 신경적 측면에 초점을 맞추었다. 그와 그의 동료들은 이 주제에 대해 400편 이상의 논문을 발표했다. 그의 주된 연구 분야는 기억, 기억상실증, 기억에 대한 인지심리학적ㆍ신경심리학적 분석이며, 최근에는 기억 왜곡의 뇌 기제와 인지, 신경영상 등에 대해 연구하고 있다. 특히 기억이 왜 항상 정확하지 않은지, 기억의 왜곡이 어떻게 일어나는지 등 기억의 구성적 특징에 관심이 많다. 그는 기억의 역할을 이해하는 것이 기억의 구성적 특징을 이해하는 데 중요하다고 말한다. 그것은 과거의 기억들을 유연하게 재조합하는 과정에서 기억의 오류가 일어날 수 있기 때문이다. 『기억 저편의 이방인(Stranger Behind the Engram)』, 『기억을 찾아서(Searching for Memory)』 등을 비롯해 기억과 신경심리학을 다룬 책을 집필했다. 저서로 『도둑맞은 뇌』가 있으며, 출간 당시 『뉴욕타임스』 ‘올해의 책’ 선정, 미국 심리학회의 윌리엄 제임스 도서상(William James Book Award)을 수상했다. 미국 심리학회의 우수 과학 공로상을 수상했으며, 2013년에 국립과학아카데미 회원으로 선출되었다. 2020년 그가 테드(TEDed)에 기고한 글이 ‘당신의 모든 기억은 진짜인가?(Are all of you memory real?)’라는 제목의 유튜브 영상으로 제작되었다.
