Understanding the Psychology of Internet Behaviour
The Day that Changed Everything?
Virtual Worlds, Real Lives
Athanasia Chalari, Lecturer in Sociology, University of Manchester, UK
This study sees ‘mediation’ as a way of understanding the relationship between internal and external conversation, which underpins how individuals are connected to society. The relationship between these aspects of conversation is crucial in allowing selves to achieve subjectively-defined ‘balance’ between inner and outer worlds.

Self Efficacy The Exercise of Control Albert Bandura, Stanford University, USA
The renowned psychologist Albert Bandura’s theory is that those with high self-efficacy expectancies (the belief that one can achieve what one sets out to do) are healthier, more effective and generally more successful than those with low self-efficacy expectancies. The author begins with a discussion of theory and method and then examines how belief in one’s abilities affects development, mental functioning and health, with examples from the areas of psychopathology, athletics, business and international issues.

PSYCHOLOGY OF EMOTION • ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY Psychology of Emotion
Emotion Science
Abnormal Psychology
Cognitive and Neuroscientific Approaches to Understanding Human Emotions
Why Music Moves Us Jeanette Bicknell, Lecturer, Department of Philosophy, Carleton University, Canada
Elaine Fox, Professor, Department of Psychology, University of Essex, UK
‘Combining philosophy, psychology, and music history, Why Music Moves Us is a remarkable multidisciplinary achievement. Bicknell offers a fresh take on the emotional power of music by exploring a neglected but vital element of the Romantic aesthetic: the musical sublime.’ - Theodore Gracyk, author of Rhythm and Noise and Listening to Popular Music ‘For Bicknell, who fully understands music’s ability to arouse and represent emotions, music is of moral benefit in educating them.’ - Times Literary Supplement ‘A serious and intriguing enquiry into a really difficult question.’ - Mary Midgely
‘In this timely and significant book, Fox deftly integrates findings from cognitive psychology and from neuroscience in presenting a sophisticated and comprehensive discussion of the science of emotion. She offers important insights that sharpen our knowledge of the links among cognition, affect, personality, and neurobiology. This volume should be on the bookshelf of every scientist or student who is interested in understanding the interplay of psychological and biological aspects of emotion.’ Professor Ian Gotlib, Stanford University, USA ‘...will enrich the research agenda in this dynamic and expanding field.’ - Professor Jon May, University of Plymouth, UK
Music has extraordinary power to move us, but how and why does it affect us? What is going on, emotionally, physically and cognitively when listeners have strong emotional responses to music? This is a highly readable, original and philosophically important book for anyone who has ever been moved by music.
Research into emotion has exploded over the last decade and for the first time in a single book, Elaine Fox draws together the vast array of cognitive and neuroscientific research, exploring the interaction between cognitive and emotional processes. This insightful overview is an ideal core textbook for courses on cognition and emotion.

It’s an appealing accessible read - perfect for a waiting room.’ - The Guardian ‘If you’ve got even a passing interest in psychotherapy you’ll want to read this graphic novel three times, at least.’ - Time Out ‘I loved it.

One to read for sure.’ - Susie Orbach, Author and Columnist 'Perry delivers that rarity: an edifying page-turner.' - The Scotsman ‘I’ve read hundreds of books about therapy and this is among the best...it has a wicked sense of humour and a great sense of style.

Jeff Wise, Science Writer, and a Contributing Editor, Popular Mechanics and Travel and Leisure. He’s written for the New York Times Magazine, Popular Science, Outside, National Geographic and more
‘[Jeff Wise] specialises in what he calls ‘the adrenalin-cranking assignment’, which means he cannot see a ridiculously raging river without wanting to bounce along it. Show him a cave and he’ll go down it, a plane and he’ll fling himself out of it, a gorge and he’ll bungee jump into it. All in all, he’s just the man to investigate the nature of fear and how it is generated. His method is to cut artfully between an assortment of his own and other people’s terrifying experiences and the science that informs them.’ The Sunday Telegraph ‘Extreme Fear is a correlate of extreme risk – either that, or you just don’t understand the situation. Wise provides a fascinating account of how, with luck, it can be conquered by experience and selfdiscipline.’ - BBC Focus Magazine An acclaimed science journalist offers a riveting account of how people process extreme fear. Having jumped out of planes and scaled vertical cliff faces, Wise uses his adventures and draws on current brain research to weave a energetic tale of how the human spirit uses fear to triumph in the face of challenges.
