av DANIEL REISBERG
Now in use at over 200 colleges and universities, Cognition: Exploring the Science of the Mind is one of the premier textbooks in the field. This exciting text challenges students to explore core concepts in cognitive psychology by focusing on the ideas behind the research, asking "Why is it important?" and "What does it really mean?" Professor Reisberg's unique approach draws on examples from a wide range of disciplines, including biology, linguistics, political science, economics, and philosophy, among others, and clearly demonstrates the real-world implications of theoretical issues. Carefully revised to be more concise and accessible, the Third Edition features strengthened coverage of neuroscience, over 300 new citations, and a new Student Web Site. More Concise, New Pedagogy Briefer than its predecessors, the Third Edition moves to an open, single-column format and includes new thematic previews at the beginning of each chapter. These previews get students thinking about the central concepts in the chapter before they begin reading. Strengthened Coverage of Neuroscience Highlights of the Third Edition's expanded coverage of neuroscience: Chapter 2 guides students through the basics of neuroanatomy and neurochemistry, demonstrating the significance of neuroscience to cognitive psychology, explaining the methodological issues involved in distinguishing correlation and causation in neuroscience, and using a study by Tong et al as a concrete example to demonstrate the power of neuroimaging. Chapter 3's discussion of object recognition now includes coverage of viewpoint-dependence, which has important neuroscientific implications. Chapter 13 includes new coverage of neuropsychological research on emotion's important role in decision-making. Chapter 15 discusses "workspace" conceptions of consciousness as an example of the intersections between cognitive psychology and neuroscience.
