Now in full color to better engage students and facilitate their grasp of the material, COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY, Seventh Edition balances accessible writing, practical applications, and research scholarship while interweaving biology throughout the text. Utilizing the theme that human cognition has evolved over time as a means of adapting to our environment, the authors explore the basics of cognitive psychology by covering cognitive neuroscience, attention and consciousness, perception, memory, knowledge representation, language, problem solving and creativity, decision making and reasoning, cognitive development, and intelligence. In this edition, content on human intelligence is consolidated in a new final chapter. The authors provide the most comprehensive coverage of any cognitive psychology text available, using a "from lab to life" approach that aptly discusses theory as well as lab and field research while continually highlighting the applications to everyday life. Review: Very informative and gives you the history as well. - I like how the book is written and the questions that help with memorizing what you read. Great book. Review: Honestly I really liked this textbook - Honestly I really liked this textbook. It's well written and easy to understand, this is definitely a helpful textbook if you're taking a cog psych class. Also it happens to be a really nice size and weight, not huge and unwieldly and awkward to fit in a backpack like most textbooks.

I have to say it's better than most textbooks
I ordered this for a class. I think it's ridiculously over priced, even in the world of expensive textbooks in which we live. However, I have to say it's better than most textbooks. This may be because I find the subject matter interesting, so there's my disclaimer. I thought the material was interesting, well written, and seems to come from valid sources (they do cite themselves occasionally). It's also organized in a way that you didn't need to skip around like with some textbooks, to understand what they were referencing. I like that they repeat the meanings of some of the psychological terms here and there in case you forgot by the time they use them again. All in all, I think the book it's great for a textbook, my only complaint is the price. I originally rented it, but when I found out it would be required for at least one more course and recommended for another, I decided I'd bite the bullet and buy it. Also available to buy online which is much cheaper (but still expensive), a fellow student did that and she was happy with that option.
