Is repressed memory as common as Freud thought, and is Freud still important today? What mistakes do humans routinely make in judging how likely events are to occur? Why do we find patterns in events even when they are unrelated? How do genetics make some people more prone to drug addiction, sensation seeking, or being highly sociable?

Through anecdotes, personal examples, wicked humor, and explanations honed through more than 30 years and more than 700 psychology classes, Dr. Richards covers some of his most popular classroom topics.
