Understanding Human Motivation: What Makes People Tick? by Donald LamingUnderstanding Human Motivation is a lively presentation of how factors such as biological nature, instinct, past experience, and society determine what we do.

The material is presented in the original idiom of real life stories in newspapers, which serve to illuminate classical controversies in social psychology. Although the book also has some novel theoretical insights, it should be particularly useful for students beginning in psychology."
