Weiten and McCann’s Psychology: Themes and Variations, Third Canadian Edition, maintains this market-leading book’s strengths, providing a unique survey of psychology that meets three goals: to demonstrate the unity and diversity of psychology’s subject matter, to illuminate the research process and its link to application, and to make the material challenging and thought-provoking yet easy to learn. The authors take great care to create a successful balance of expertise and engagement through the integration of seven unifying themes, an unparalleled didactic art program, real-life examples, and a streamlined set of learning aids that help students see beyond research to big-picture concepts. Replete with current Canadian research, this edition includes the major topics typically covered in today’s courses, such as evolutionary psychology, neuropsychology, biological psychology, positive psychology, applied psychology, careers, and multiculturalism and diversity
