Dr. Stephen Reed's Ninth Edition of COGNITION: THEORY AND APPLICATIONS focuses on the theories that underlie
cognitive phenomena as well as empirical data that establishes a traditional, information processing approach to
cognitive psychology. This structure allows readers to discover the direct relevance of cognitive psychology to
many of their daily activities. The text incorporates unparalleled scholarship in a distinctive clear voice that
allows for the emphasis of both contemporary and classical research through real-life examples and experiments.
Revised and updated throughout to maintain a high degree of currency and accuracy, content reflects the ever-evolving
field and is made relevant to students' lives through the inclusion of popular articles from well-known magazines
and newspapers. As a result of its adherence to three criteria--the material must make an important contribution
to cognitive psychology, be accessible, and be both understandable and interesting--the text is an invaluable tool
in learning cognitive psychology.
