Summary
Connect the study of cognition to everyday life with COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY. Covering both the landmark studies and the cutting-edge research that define this fascinating field, this textbook includes concrete examples and illustrations to help you understand the theories of cognition -- driving home both the scientific importance of the theories and their relevance to your daily life. You'll leave this text with a true understanding of the "behind the scenes" activity that happens in the mind when humans do such seemingly simple activities as perceiving, remembering, or thinking.
