"This book is not merely a dictionary of psychology, it is a dictionary for psychologists. It attempts to include all technical terms that a psychologist is likely to encounter in reading about the subject, including terms from psychiatry, neurology, neurophysiology, neurochemistry, ethology, sociobiology, genetics, linguistics, artificial intelligence, sociology, anthropology, statistics, philosophy and other disciplines. Many examples of the use of terms are given where needed, and every attempts has been made to make the dictionary as up to date as possible." "This completely revised edition contains about 1,500 new terms, almost all of which have come into usage since the first edition was published in 1987. In addition the definitions of many of the original terms have been revised either to correct errors or to improve clarity. Book jacket."--Jacket.
