Summary

An overview of psychology that emphasizes critical thinking, gender, and culture
REVEL™ for Psychology is designed to help students learn to think like psychologists, and to understand why scientific and critical thinking is so important to the decisions they make in their own lives. In keeping with their hallmark approach, authors Carole Wade and Carol Tavris, along with new contributor Alan Swinkels, continue to emphasize critical thinking and to integrate coverage of gender and culture throughout the main narrative. REVEL for the Twelfth Edition offers revised learning objectives that better guide students through the text as well as updated research references that reflect progress in the field and cutting-edge discoveries.

REVEL is Pearson’s newest way of delivering our respected content. Fully digital and highly engaging, REVEL replaces the textbook and gives students everything they need for the course. Informed by extensive research on how people read, think, and learn, REVEL is an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience – for less than the cost of a traditional textbook.

NOTE: This Revel Combo Access pack includes a Revel access code plus a loose-leaf print reference (delivered by mail) to complement your Revel experience. In addition to this access code, you will need a course invite link, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Revel.
