(sorry if I write in english with some mistakes; my native language is spanish)[If you want to read only my opinion about the book, start in the underlined paragraph]Since around 2011, when I started to really see all the areas I would love to develop and dedicate my entire life, I've looked up many areas on which I'd feel great with myself. One of those that my parents wantedme to be on was computer engineering, since I have a very good knowledge of that area, and my parents saw that it's giving alot of money (or at least in my country right now). I liked it, but thinking that I was going to be sitting on a chair on alot of my work in front of a screen most of the time, didn't quite get my full attention.Psychology, in the other hand, even though they say it doesn't make much money, if you live doing what you really like, makes your life and your time worth it. This is the area that I feel that I want to develop myself and will make my life worthwile. I'm going to begin in March to study Psychology at a university and I couldnt be more happier with my choice.Too much about me.This book, although Adam Cash (The author) tried to make some funny jokes or moments to make the book a little bit more worthwile, didn't quite got to it. Nevertheless, this doesn't mean that all the information that contains this book has to be underrated for this small personal comment. It begins with the most basics of psychology, going through a small part explaining parts of the brain and the scientific studies that explains which parts correlates with some of our behaviors and emotions. From social pscychology to the most recent form of psychology (positive psychology), it explains how each type of psychologies think about our emotions, behaviors , and ways to treat us, either placing the "blame" to biological factors or social factors. Observing how criminals develop their way of being themselves and taking part of the investigation to realize who could it be. Also, it talks about all of the clinical and abnormal types of disorders. There's just too much to say about the book, and it really is hard to explain because usually various points of view have analogies between them, but it really helps you to understand the most basics of psychology, so you can find yourself amongst all of the theories you can find and make one of your own.Also, he talks about several books on some of the areas that you could dig in a little bit further if you find one of your likings, and in the very end, a selection of "classical" psychology movies recommended for you to see. To put it shortly, it's a perfect book to start on the psychology area. If you're already in for quite a few years, some areas could be a bit boring to read if you already know about them. But hey, you can always go to the next chapter!
