Integrates basic and applied psychology with boxes entitled Intersections combining the five areas of psychology with the five areas of application. Concludes with a chapter that unites all areas under a unified discussion of health and well-being presenting the latest research on the self, stress and coping, and the links between psychology and the immune system. The second edition of Psychology has been revised to include an essay entitled, The Big Picture previewing each section.
