Introduction to psychology books recommended.
I recommend Psychology and Life, an introductory reading, which is also the most comprehensive, equivalent to an introductory book.
It's a textbook written by foreigners (with Chinese version). There are many examples and it won't be boring. You can also look at the Chinese version of "Research on Change Psychology 40" from the fifth edition to the English version with the sixth edition.
This book covers the classic research of psychology and is quite interesting. If you want to know more, the series of Qian Qian's Absolute Psychology published by China Light Industry Press is good, but other books on the market are mixed.
Video is also recommended: There are many open class videos of schools all over the world on the Internet, among which Introduction to Psychology by Yale University in the United States is a classic, and the development of psychology abroad is also relatively good. It's everywhere in electric donkey and Netease. You can search.
I study psychology, and I hope I can help you.
Introduction to psychology How to get started in psychology?
I have read A Book on Understanding Graphic Psychology [Japan], and there are others: 1. The book Three Kinds of Psychology: The Psychological Theories of Freud, Skinner and Rogers mainly introduces and compares the thoughts of the representatives of the three major schools of contemporary psychology (psychoanalysis, behaviorism and humanism), which is worth reading as an introductory book of psychology. What impressed me deeply in this book is the introduction to Freud, who is most famous for his psychological obstacles caused by human nature and destructive instinct and his interpretation of dreams. But personally, the part of his theory that has been useful to most people so far is about self-defense mechanism. Understanding these mechanisms is very helpful for us to adopt an appropriate attitude when facing difficulties. 2. "Psychology and Life" is a textbook used by Stanford University in the United States for many years, and it is also a classic textbook popularized by many universities in the United States. It is recommended by ETS as the main reference book for GRE psychology special examination, and it is also an excellent teaching material for the selection of "General Psychology" courses in many national universities. Not only that, this textbook is fluent, easy to understand and goes deep into life. It connects psychological theory and knowledge with people's daily life and work, and becomes an excellent reading for the general public to understand psychology and themselves! 3. The book "Three Kinds of Psychology" introduces the basic theories of psychoanalysis/behaviorism and humanism, which should be regarded as a good introductory book. 4. Introduction to Psychology-The Road to Understanding Thought and Behavior is another famous American psychology textbook. This book is translated from the latest revision of the ninth edition of the original work and compiled by the personnel of the Institute of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. These two books are voluminous, but they are both written in simple terms and close to life. At the same time, both of them contain the latest research results and cutting-edge information, and they are really the best introductory books for psychology lovers. 5. Introduction to Psychoanalysis summarizes Freud's basic ideas and the main contents of psychoanalysis, which is extremely rare in similar books. Freud and Marx (Renmin University of China Press, 2004) expounds the relationship between psychoanalysis and Marxism. Although this book was written in the 1930s, it still has its value. 6. Inferiority and Transcendence is Adler's most influential work, which has been published by many publishing houses in China. Adler's latest translation is Understanding Human Nature published by Guizhou People's Publishing House (2004).

Introduction to psychology
Reading the two books, Advantages of Human Nature and Weakness of Human Nature, is quite useful for dealing with psychological communication in daily life. If you want to work in psychology in the future, you'd better have a comprehensive grasp of knowledge. Psychology studies people's psychological activities and spiritual world, which sounds interesting, but if you study with professionals, the content will be boring, but when you go deep into it, you can find it.
You can try to start with the history of psychology and get a general understanding of the historical evolution of this discipline, the various schools that have appeared in history and the construction theories of various schools. You can read a college textbook of general psychology, which is very classic and involves various fields of psychological research, but it is a voluminous book, and it will take you at least half a year to study it carefully, and it is not very simple to write.

Introduction to psychology
Well, I recommend some books on psychology that I like: The Weakness of Human Nature, Nine Personalities and Evil Psychology. They are not difficult to write, but also interesting. Especially, there are many cases in Psychology of Evil, which are very helpful to life. If you plan to start teaching psychology by yourself, I suggest reading Basic Psychology (published by Yu Guoliang and Dai Binrong), which I appreciate very much ... and then choose a direction that interests you and study slowly. ...
To tell the truth, I think self-study in psychology is ok, but ... it's difficult, and you need to be fully prepared. In addition, psychology, especially when it comes to mental illness, is often extreme and difficult ... it will cause certain psychological pressure on itself.
