Psychology: Revisiting the Classic Studies is a new series of texts aimed at students and general readers who are interested in understanding issues raised by key studies in psychology. Volumes centre on 1215 studies, with each chapter providing a detailed account of a particular classic study and its empirical and theoretical impact. Chapters also discuss the important ways in which thinking and research has advanced in the years since the study was conducted. Chapters are written by researchers at the cutting edge of these developments and, as a result, these texts serve as an excellent resource for instructors and students looking to explore different perspectives on core material that defines the field of psychology as we know it today.
