About this listen
Join the coauthor of the world’s best-selling psychology textbook in exploring the secrets of human psychology.
Understanding our thoughts and emotions is essential to living our best lives. From infancy through old age, psychology affects our relationships, achievements, and sense of overall well-being. In this compelling audio course, Professor Nathan DeWall equips you with powerful tools that can help you achieve self-knowledge.
Psychology is a science and uses the same methods as other sciences. But there is a big difference: many psychological topics are difficult to evaluate and measure. Some of our most valuable qualities - self-esteem, memory, emotion, thinking, personality - seem ineffable.
Through Prof. DeWall, you will get a backstage pass to many of the mind’s mysteries, including why some people are prone to depression, why some therapies work while others don’t, and why some romantic relationships succeed while others flop. By understanding psychology as a science, you will have a better understanding of yourself and the world around you.
In this engaging 24-lecture course, Prof. DeWall takes you on a wild ride through the mind. Incorporating vivid case studies and psychological research, the lectures challenge you to reconsider what you think you know about the mind and offer practical tools to improve your daily life.
Listen today for an in-depth look at the human mind and its profound mysteries.
This course is part of the Learn25 collection.

Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?" When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

"It doesn't take an Einstein to understand modern physics," says Professor Wolfson at the outset of these 24 lectures on what may be the most important subjects in the universe: relativity and quantum physics. Both have reputations for complexity. But the basic ideas behind them are, in fact, simple and comprehensible by anyone. These dynamic and illuminating lectures begin with a brief overview of theories of physical reality starting with Aristotle and culminating in Newtonian or "classical" physics.

Prepared overturns today’s paranoid survival wisdom and teaches the foundational skills of preparedness that will not only help you build situational awareness and achieve greater mobility but that will also help you build resilient mental habits.

Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking, and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

Hardly a day goes by that we don’t hear about someone committing a violent, reprehensible, even evil, act. And each time it happens, before we know anything about the circumstances, we are already sure of one thing: We are nothing like that perpetrator. But how can we be so sure? After all, we are all human. In Understanding the Dark Side of Human Nature, Professor Daniel Breyer takes us on a fascinating philosophical journey into many of the deepest and darkest questions that have engaged humanity for millennia.

Spending over a year on the New York Times bestseller list, Emotional Intelligence provided the evidence for what many successful people already knew: being smart isn't just a matter of mastering facts; it's a matter of mastering your own emotions and understanding the emotions of the people around you.

Every day of your life is spent surrounded by mysteries that involve what appear to be rather ordinary human behaviors. What makes you happy? Where did your personality come from? Why do you have trouble controlling certain behaviors? Why do you behave differently as an adult than you did as an adolescent?Since the start of recorded history, and probably even before, people have been interested in answering questions about why we behave the way we do.

Great listen--really gets you thinking!
Although I came into this course with an introductory knowledge of many of the topics DeWall covered, my knowledge of psychology was greatly enhanced by this course. Perhaps in part because he is a leading psychology textbook author, the material is incredibly up to date, even including examples related to COVID-19! DeWall clearly has a great love of his topic and his enthusiasm is infectious. You'll learn a great deal that will help you better understand yourself and those around you.

Fantastic course!
This course is very simple, concise and easy to follow. Nathan is a natural speaker who balances storytelling, data, and personal experience to really convey these basic psychological concepts. I highly recommend this course for those interested in self-help and self improvement.Not only is the information educational and interesting, it is very applicable and useful in todays world. Honestly I wish that I could've had a course like this 20 years ago after spending lots of time and money on countless self-help books!

Great Course
A great overview of the basics concepts of psychology and a good refresher. Updated from the last time I took psychology 101 in college and the instructor is clear with concepts and terminology.

Nearly perfect course
Professor DeWall packs a huge amount of information into this lecture series. You learn about how the brain and sensory system works, how we learn and remember, what motivates us, how we can understand behavior, personality and more. I think that he draws from personal and other real world examples. I wish I would have had professors like this in college.

All Content (No Filler)
It's rare to find an audiobook that's over 10 hours long and has no filler segments. But, that's the case with this excellent intro to psych audio course by Nathan DeWall. I knew of DeWall from reading his high school and college level textbooks, but hearing him explain concepts in his own voice was refreshing and really brought the concepts alive. This is a great primer for any student taking AP psych, or any one who's generally interested about what makes humans tick.

Great teacher
I think if I had a professor as good as DeWall for my intro to Psychology courses in undergrad, I may have wound up going into the Psychology field. He is very interesting to listen to and you get a very good overview of many facets of the field!
