Description
Part of a two volume work taken from the proceedings of the International Conference on Thinking, held at the University of Aberdeen in August 1988, this book explores current empirical and theoretical research in human thinking. This volume particularly considers such complex processes as skilled thinking, emotion and thought, creative processes, individual differences and teaching thinking. The book has been organized into themes so that topics of increasing complexity are considered in the later sections of text.
