Welcome Colleagues,
students, friends and
fellow internet explorers!
Our website brings together all the things that
have been so
important to me over the years: my students,
my family,
and my successful
Discovering Biological Psychology
textbook.
My favorite times are with
faculty and students!

Visitors to my blog:
It has been fun to
see who is picking up my blog around the globe!
New friends come from many wonderful places!

It's always fun to add a new book to my library!
Here's the latest I found from Charles Darwin entitled:
The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals (1897)
Certainly a book for anyone who has enjoyed animals!
Mark Ridley of Scientific American
writes:
"The Expression of the
Emotions in Man and Animals is one
of Darwin'smost readable works. It is alive with anecdotes, literary
quotations and his own observations of his friends and children.Artificial intelligence nerds, neuropsychiatric white-coats and magazine psychobabblers all have some way to go in understanding the emotions,and there will be no better inspiration for them(and the rest of us) than the ideas of one of the master intellects of all time"

By the way, not all
knowledge is best found on the internet,
when
you read the original work, a
unique understanding is gained. Books
of historical significance will
always have a place in our field. They give
us the opportunity to view the
authors in the context of their work
and in their time. Not long ago
I found a quote attributed to William James and discovered that he had
been misquoted for decades. The message here is that it pays to read the
original. With libraries closing
around the world, we have a great opportunity to acquire wonderful
books
for ourselves.
Here's part of my Psychology Library and how I built it.
Thank you for
dropping by! Come back again soon and see what
new things we are doing!.
