Description and Table of Contents

Description

John Anderson's text offers a systematic and accessible presentation of the theoretical foundations of higher mental processes. Addressing both the information processing and the cognitive neuroscience approaches to the field (with more emphasis on information processing), the book demonstrates knowledge representation as the central issue around which cognitive psychology is organized. The new edition has been thoroughly updated throughout, especially in the area of cognitive neuroscience.
