Review
... Extremely readable ... I have no doubt that the fourth edition will be a success, and deservedly so. - Gerry Altmann, University of York
Although a fourth edition, this is a current text, relating all major areas of cognition to neuropsychological function and dysfunction, written in an accessible style with a well-illustrated format. - Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society
Eysenck and Keane have set a well established precedent for authoritative, comprehensive and lucid treatment of cognitive psychology ... This new edition demonstrates the significant recent progress in Cognitive Psychology together with informative discussion of the theoretical, empirical and methodological context from which this progress has arisen ... It was a pleasure to read ... and particularly enjoyable was the opportunity to update my knowledge of topics outside my own areas of research and teaching. - Robert Logie, University of Aberdeen
In summary, I think this is an outstanding text, and this revision will ensure that it remains my first choice. - Trevor Harley, University of Dundee
This book is a worthy successor to previous editions and will continue to provide first and second year psychology undergraduates with a firm foundation in cognitive psychology. The breadth of coverage is staggering, yet the authors maintain coherence throughout. Theories, scientific approaches, methods and data are all clearly explained, evaluated and summarised, helping the reader to critically reflect as they learn. These qualities make this volume a true handbook. - Liz Styles, Buckinghamshire Chilterns College
Product Description
This is a thorough revision and updating of the extremely successful third edition. As in previous editions, the following three perspectives are considered in depth: experimental cognitive psychology; cognitive science, with its focus on cognitive modelling; and cognitive neuropsychology with its focus on cognition following brain damage. In addition, and new to this edition, is detailed discussion of the cognitive neuroscience perspective, which uses advanced brain-scanning techniques to clarify the functioning of the human brain. There is detailed coverage of the dynamic impact of these four perspectives on the main areas of cognitive psychology, including perception, attention, memory, knowledge representation, categorisation, language, problem-solving, reasoning, and judgement.
The aim is to provide comprehensive coverage that is up-to-date, authoritative, and accessible. All existing chapters have been extensively revised and re-organised. Some of the topics receiving much greater coverage in this edition are: brain structures in perception, visual attention, implicit learning, brain structures in memory, prospective memory, exemplar theories of categorisation, language comprehension, connectionist models in perception, neuroscience studies of thinking, judgement, and decision making.
Cognitive Psychology: A Students Handbook will be essential reading for undergraduate students of psychology. It will also be of interest to students taking related courses in computer science, education, linguistics, physiology, and medicine.
