About this ebook

The Science of Psychology: An Appreciative View (2026 EverGreen Release) by Laura A. King is a premium introductory psychology textbook published by McGraw-Hill Education. This flagship 7th edition focuses on human strengths, capabilities, and wellness, encouraging students to look at "why things go right" rather than solely examining clinical dysfunctions. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Core Pedagogical Philosophy

Appreciative Perspective: Frames psychology as a cohesive, integrated science that places normal human functioning before dysfunction.
Scientific Thinking: Teaches students to analyze their own life experiences through the eyes of an active psychological scientist.
Dynamic Interconnectedness: Emphasizes that all subfields of psychology—biological, cognitive, social, and developmental—are deeply linked. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

New Features & Course Components

DEI Framework: Deep integration of cultural diversity and research explicitly tied to modern Equity and Inclusion standards. [1]
Thematic Modules: Direct inclusion of short, targeted modules mapping seamlessly to the APA's IPI (Introductory Psychology Initiative) Student Learning Outcomes. [1]
McGraw-Hill Connect: Complete online integration featuring the Immersive Brain tool, application-based activities, and adaptive SmartBook diagnostic questioning. [1, 2]
