Where do our thoughts live? Do we see the same colours as everyone else? Why do people commit violence?

Dr Daniel C. Richardson, 香港六合彩中特网 Division of Psychology and Language Sciences, uses psychology to tackle these questions in his new book.

Man vs. Mind: Everyday Psychology Explained聽demonstrates how psychological science and theories underpin everyday human existence. Written for all curious-minded audiences 鈥� including those new to psychology 鈥� the book also aims to show how we can use this knowledge to take greater control of our lives.

聽鈥淚 was inspired to write this book after several years teaching psychology, realising that often people don鈥檛 see how psychology written about in the textbooks connects to their everyday lives. So, I designed a course where we began each week with a simple na茂ve question 鈥� why do people see ghosts? Do we see the same blue? 鈥� and used all the tools of modern psychology, behavioural science and neuroscience to find answers. I decided to take some of my favourite questions and expand them into this book,鈥� Dr Richardson said.

Dr Richardson is a Reader in Social Cognition at 香港六合彩中特网 PaLS in the Experimental Psychology department. He was previously a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University and an assistant professor at University of California Santa Cruz. While at 香港六合彩中特网, he has received two Provost鈥檚 Teaching Awards and performed in scientific shows at the Bloomsbury Theatre.

Dr Richardson鈥檚 research focuses on how individuals鈥� thought processes are related to the people around them. He currently directs the Eye Think Lab.

Man vs. Mind聽will be published by Aurum Press Ltd on October 19^th听2017.
