Psychology is a fairly new profession, as people with mental disabilities have been tabooed for most of history. Of course even in this day, there are still taboos against the study of the mind, due to a narrow minded thinking, that they are just crazy and can't be helped. This makes some topics in psychology difficult to breach, and also are far too small understanding of the human brain effects it too.

What is the difference between the branches of psychology and the fields of psychology?

A field is a very broad area of study. It covers everything within that particular area. In this case, psychology is a field. (biology, medicine, philosophy, anthropology are also fields). A branch is a specific area of study WITHIN the field. Think of it as a tree branch. The field branches out, and each branch focuses on a specific part of the field. In this case, psychology is the field, and branches of psychology would be (but not limited to) abnormal psychology, biological psychology, industrial psychology, criminal psychology, sports psychology, clinical psychology. Each focuses on a particular area, but all belong to the field of psychology. You can personally use psychology (the field) as a tool to learn general things about human behavior. But, most people who do the research go into branches. Some prefer to deal with only abnormal psychology, while others want to focus only on industrial psychology. Another example is Medicine. Medicine is a field, because it's a broad area of study. However, people who study medicine will concentrate in one particular area - some in pharmaceuticals. some in therapy, some in bioengineering, ext ext.
