Introducing 30-Second Psychology

More about 30-Second Psychology (also available in the USA):

"The key ideas in Psychology explained, with colour illustrations, in half a minute. Pavlov's Dogs, Psychoanalysis, Milgram's Obedience Study, and Beck's Cognitive Therapy? Sure, you know what they all mean. That is, you've certainly heard of them.

From Behaviorism to Cognitivism, what better way to get a handle on your inner demons?"
