"Cognitive processes enable us to experience the world around us: to recognize familiar faces
to communicate to one another through speech and writing
to feel emotion as we recall memories from the past. Cognitive Psychology provides a dynamic insight into this subject, leading us through such topics as attention, memory, judgement and decision making, and introducing us to the latest computational and imaging techniques through which our understanding of these topics is being continually enhanced. With state-of-the-art introductions from internationally recognized experts, Cognitive Psychology conveys a sense of excitement in the subject which is sure to engage and enthuse any student."--BOOK JACKET.
