    1. It is recommended to take a look at general psychology first, general psychology can be said to be a summary of all schools and directions of psychology, through general psychology you can roughly understand what problems psychology is mainly studying, what schools and their respective propositions, the textbook of general psychology recommends Peng Danling's "General Psychology", which is the textbook used by most schools, you can also take a look at Zimbardo's "Psychology and Life", the general content of foreigners' textbooks is more vivid and interesting.

    2. Then there is the history of psychology, I want to study psychology, it is very meaningful to understand the development of psychology, the history of psychology mainly introduces the various schools and representatives in the development of psychology, and the experience of many psychologists is quite legendary, such as Watson and Skinner of behaviorism, Freud and Jung of psychoanalysis, etc., this should be more interesting to read than Puxin, just like listening to the story, I recommend two books of history of psychology, one is Ye Haosheng's "History of Psychology", and the other is called "Personality Theory" , written by a foreigner, I feel that this book is more readable, and the story of each psychologist is told in great detail.

    3. In addition to the general heart, the compulsory courses of psychology probably include psychological counseling, experimental psychology, cognitive psychology, psychostatistics, psychometrics, personality psychology, educational psychology, developmental psychology, etc., you can pick some branches of interest to learn science, especially psychological counseling, personality psychology and developmental psychology, which are very practical, and you can directly branch the name of the discipline + textbook, which is easy to search.

    4. Recommend a few extracurricular popular science books in psychology, because these books are professional, and they are all written or translated by professionals from psychology classes (many books are under the banner of psychology, in fact, many views have not been rigorously researched and demonstrated, just personal experience, and the credibility should be marked with a big question mark, such as mind reading, psychological control, etc.) and the content is more attractive, and the readability is better than that of general textbooks, so I recommend: "40 Studies on Changing Psychology" (If you're interested in psychology, read this anyway), "Psychology with a Difference", "Decision Making and Judgment" ......That's all for now, I hope it will be useful to you.

    The first book recommends reading "The Story of Psychology" (written by Americans, which is generally more popular, but has a deep content).

    The basic textbooks for psychology majors include "General Psychology" (Cao Richang wrote more popular than Peng Danling and Meng Zhaoland, and the content is less, non-professional recommendations to see Cao Richang), foreign ones have "Psychology and Life" (foreigners write more popular, the whole book is not as clear as it seems to be written by Chinese, but it is very well written).

    Other textbooks for psychology majors include Developmental Psychology, Educational Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Social Psychology, Experimental Psychology, Psychostatistics, Psychometrics, etc.

    However, "Physiological Psychology", "Human Anatomy" and other basic textbooks that are partial to science can not be read by non-majors, it is too difficult.

    Extracurricular books include Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams", Adler's "Inferiority and Transcendence", etc., and you can also look at "Personality Psychology", "Behavioral Psychology" and other books that are more closely related to yourself.

    Wanting to study psychology means that you are interested in this subject, but the scope of this subject is actually very broad, so first determine what aspect you are interested in, or what is the purpose of studying? Is it education-related? Or psychological counseling?

    Or is it psychosocial? Once you have determined this, you can select some books to read. However, before that, you must first master the basic knowledge of psychology, if you are not a professional, the book "Psychology and Life" is very good, you can grasp some basic concepts and principles, and the content is not boring.
