Cognition: Exploring the Science of the Mind 4e is one of the premier textbooks in the field. Professor Reisberg's inquiry-based approach challenges students to explore core concepts in cognitive psychology by focusing on the ideas behind the research. This unique approach draws on examples from a wide range of disciplines including biology, linguistics, political science, economics, and philosophy, and clearly demonstrates the real-world implications of theoretical issues. Cognition: Exploring the Science of the Mind 4e is the complete package, providing students with all the tools they need to succeed in Cognitive Psychology. The text, workbook and media work together to engage students in the scientific process and emphasize the relevance of Cognitive Psychology. NEW TO THIS EDITION *All chapters have been updated with important new research findings, and the coverage of neuroscience has again been expanded. For just one example, there is more about the neuroimaging data that help us understand the contrast between familiarity and source memory, each of which is established by different mechanisms and served by its own brain site. *A new 2-color format and 16-page full color insert make for a more inviting and readable design, and more photographs and illustrations have been added to every chapter. *An entirely new Cognition Workbook written by the author and fully integrated with the text. The Workbook will include all new materials that were not covered in previous editions of the text, including demonstrations (which can be used alone by students as they read or by instructors within the classroom) and new material on research methods for every chapter. *The text is known for drawing on author's personal experience in law enforcement and criminal justice, and a new essay for each chapter in the Workbook makes connections between course material and real world applications. *Finally each copy of the text includes ZAPS: the Norton Psychology Labs, a set of interactive computer experiments that are perfect for cognition courses. These labs allow students to experience psychological phenomena and classical experiments in an exciting and interactive online environment.
