What People Are Saying
Psychology Press
"In summary, I think this is an outstanding text, and this revision will ensure that it remains my first choice."----Trevor Harley, University of DundeeThis 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 Chilterus University College.
"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 ... together with informative discussion of the theoretical, empirical and methodological context from which this progress has arisen... It was a pleasure to read." ----Robert Logie, University of Aberdeen
