About An Introduction to Personality, Individual Differences and Intelligence

The Second Edition of this popular textbook continues its reputation for clarity, accessibility, conceptual sophistication and adds new content on intelligence, personality disorders and biological and genetic theories.<p>This book is not like other books. It differs from them in its subject matter, its length, its shape, its price, its publisher, and in many other ways as well. At the same time, this book is just like other books. It is something that is meant to be read, that aims to inform, that is published and that might be found in libraries. It is a unique individual, but it is also an example of a general kind of thing.&nbsp;</p><p>The same goes for people, of course. Each of us is a unique individual, different from everyone else. But each of us is also a member of humankind who has the shared characteristics of our species; what might be called our human nature. This book is all about that duality, exploring how humans differ psychologically from one another and what these differences tell us about our shared human nature. It examines what psychologists call ‘individual differences’ – the ways in which people vary in personality and mental abilities – and how psychologists have developed scientific generalizations about this kind of human diversity.&nbsp;</p><p>The psychology of individual differences is fascinating and fundamental. Capturing the richness of human psychological variation and individuality is very challenging, and psychologists have developed many ways of describing these differences. They have also developed numerous theories to explain these differences, invoking factors as diverse as genes, brain systems, cultural factors and early childhood experiences. They have applied an enormous variety of research methods to develop and test these theories, ranging from brain imaging studies to psychological biographies. And in the process they have come to very dissimilar visions of what it is to be human: what we have in common in the midst of all our differences<br></p>
