Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book, What Makes Us Tick? Key Concepts in Psychological Science, is a comprehensive educational text that moves beyond traditional psychological theory to examine the dark duality of human knowledge. It argues that every core concept in psychology-from neurotransmitters and memory encoding to social obedience and personality traits-carries an inherent potential for exploitation and manipulation.Core Framework and Content, The book is structured around a unique analytical framework: every Core Psychological Concept is rigorously paired with a Dark Concept (how the principle has been used for harm, such as gaslighting, psychiatric slavery, or eugenics) and the resulting Weighted Law (the binding legal or ethical mandate created to prevent recurrence, such as the Nuremberg Code, IRB regulations, or Due Process protections). Content spans: Foundations (Part I & IV): The biological "tick," covering genetics, neurochemistry, perception, and memory, and examining ethical violations like sensory deprivation and false memory creation.Theory & Society (Part II & VII): Major schools of thought (Psychodynamic, Behavioral, Cognitive) applied to large-scale social manipulation, including the Milgram Experiment, cult dynamics, and the rise of algorithmic control.Clinical & Rights (Part III & VIII): The study of personality, developmental stages, and abnormal psychology (DSM), focusing on clinical abuses like conversion therapy, involuntary commitment, and the Duty to Warn (Tarasoff Law).Author's Role and SignificanceForensic psychologist Dr. Melissa Holt provides continuous, detailed analysis and commentary for each case study. Drawing on her interdisciplinary background in law and criminology, Dr. Holt dissects the historical context of each ethical failure, demonstrating precisely how the abuse of psychological knowledge led to the necessity of strict legal accountability. The book's central message is that understanding the mind requires ethical vigilance, equipping the reader to recognize the mechanics of exploitation and stand as a defender against psychological harm.
