What is a good start for learning psychology?

To start a psychology career, you'll need to get at least a master's degree (for school psychology) or a doctorate to practice in other specialties. To get licensed to practice psychology, you'll need to earn the required degree, pass a state and/or national exam, and fulfill other licensing requirements.

A great start would be any introduction to psychology textbooks you can find that will give you an overview of the history of psychology, as well as an introduction to some of the founding pioneers in the field. A popular choice amongst beginners is Hergenhahn's An Introduction to the History of Psychology.
