For Once a Great Textbook

I just graduated Collage and this is one of two books I'm keeping. We read it from cover to cover for my class and I didn't mind, I wanted to read it. Its very well written and accessible.

Very helpful!!

I took Dr. Matlin's Cognitive Psychology class last semester at SUNY Geneseo, and we used this book. It is excellent! Its style is very readable but the material is not watered down. The language makes the material very easy to understand. As I read it, I could almost hear her speaking! The examples are very useful in demonstrating the concepts presented. Dr. Matlin details many practical applications of cognitive psychology, such as study strategies, which would be of interest to educators, psychologists, and students alike.

A must read psychology book!

This book was recomended by my psychology teacher. He thaught that this book did an excellent job in defining cognition while hitting some important points about memory.
