This 15th edition of Atkinson & Hilgard’s Introduction to Psychology includes several welcome developments to the text since the publication of the 14th edition in 2002. Firstly, the author team has been expanded, and for the first time includes authors from outside North America, bringing a fresh international perspective to the textbook. The established author team of Susan Nolen-Hoeksema, Barbara Fredrickson and Geoff Loftus has been joined by Willem Wagenaar (University of Leiden) and Christel Lutz (University of Utrecht), who have helped to add a fresh European influence, and create a truly transatlantic introductory textbook for undergraduate psychology students wherever they are studying. Mark Reinitz (University of Puget Sound) has also joined the team as a valuable contributor to this edition. For those familiar with the content, style and approach of Atkinson & Hilgard, which was first published in 1953, this new edition is the next step in the rich history of the book. As a book with an established reputation on both sides of the Atlantic, the introduction of European coauthors has coincided with a move to broaden the international horizons of the text. Our aim is to increase the relevance and accessibility of Atkinson & Hilgard to the many lecturers and students who use the book outside of North America without diluting the appeal to our longstanding American readership. As with previous editions we continue to cover classic landmark research while also investigating contemporary cutting-edge research. The classic studies that are the foundation of psychology are critical for students to understand and appreciate. We continue to cover these studies, emphasizing their impact on the field and on our daily lives. We also acknowledge the tremendous amount of innovative work that is being done in contemporary psychology. In the 15th edition, we cover the most promising
