The book, published by Prenada Media, was released again in September 2026 in its Second Printing, Revised Edition, with 192 pages. The book discusses the relationship between psychology and culture in understanding how people think, feel, and behave in everyday life. Through a psychological perspective combined with the cultural context and local wisdom of North Sumatra, the book invites readers to understand that human behavior does not exist in isolation. Norms, values, traditions, and the social environment also contribute to shaping a person's identity, perspective, and psychological experiences.

The discussion in the book is presented through an in-depth yet communicative approach. Various psychological phenomena that are closely related to people's lives are examined by considering the relationship between local wisdom and social changes resulting from the development of modernity. This approach provides readers with an opportunity to view the complexity of human behavior in a more contextual manner. The publication of this revised edition also strengthens the position of the book as a reference source for readers who wish to explore the relationship between psychology and culture.

The publication of this book also supports the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4: Quality Education through the provision of knowledge resources that support learning and the development of academic insights. Integrating psychological perspectives with local wisdom can also enrich the learning process so that it becomes increasingly relevant to the realities of Indonesian society. By highlighting the local wisdom of North Sumatra as part of the discussion, Psychology and Culture demonstrates the importance of viewing humans holistically, not only from an individual perspective but also from the social and cultural environments that shape their lives.

This book is expected to serve as a reference that contributes to the development of psychological and cultural studies while encouraging readers to better understand human diversity and apply psychological perspectives contextually in everyday life.
