Having watched the film, I wasn't so sure. This little book would persuade you that psychology is not just fun but hugely important.The most comprehensive - and delightful - guide to the human mind. Jonny delves into the most complex psychological topics and excavates their essence, using his signature warmth and curiosity to tell you exactly what you need to know to live a better life. This book will make you more empathetic, more self-aware and more effective in all that you do.
