"I enjoyed reading this excellent introduction to cognition. I was intrigued by the sheer amount of recent work included, and the way in which it is used to throw fresh light on the standard topics of cognitive psychology. It is particularly good at providing links between behavioural laboratory research, neuroscience and everyday cognition. I strongly recommend it." - Alan Baddeley, Professor of Psychology, University of York, UK
