Psychology is a vast area of knowledge with which, it would seem, we are very familiar. But to what extent do our ideas correspond to scientific ones? This book will help you understand what is going on in people's heads. She will introduce you to history, basic concepts and theories, explain the work and breakdowns of the psyche, talk about practical psychology and character pathologies, and interpret basic terms. Perhaps the theoretical knowledge and the described practical experience will help you better know yourself and understand others.
