Quick quiz: What's the difference between short-term and long-term memory?

Your brain knows. It just won't tell you.

Most of us learned about psychology through pop quizzes and Freud jokes. We know words like "cognitive dissonance" and "placebo effect" but couldn't really explain what they mean.

This book covers what actually matters: how memory works (and fails), what shapes your personality, why you make irrational decisions, how emotions hijack your thinking, and why groups make otherwise smart people do weird things.

You'll learn why you can't remember where you put your keys but can recall a song from 1997, what "nature vs. nurture" actually means, and why your brain lies to you more than you think.

No jargon without explanation. Just the stuff that matters, explained so it sticks.

PSYCHOLOGY: Why You Think What You Think covers:

• Your Brain, Perception, and Memory
• Learning, Development, and Personality
• Emotions, Motivation, and Intelligence
• Stress, Sleep, and Dreams
• Language, Thought, and Cognitive Biases
• Social Psychology and Relationships
• Mental Health and the Unconscious
