Perspectives in Psychology

Modern psychology is a not "unified" science, i.e., it doesn't offer one theory or an integrated set of theories that explains human behavior. Rather, students of psychology must learn to think "perspectivally;" they must use several distinct theoretical perspectives as lenses to "see" into human motivation.
