Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
The chapters are all very readable, and replete with up-to-date references. This makes the book both an admirable introduction to the topic area and a very useful reference work. I have found it a valuable source of ideas in preparing material on attention for third-level undergraduates; the style of writing recommends the book for inclusion in the reading lists of many courses. Applied Cognitive Psychology ... excellent book. Applied Cognitive Psychology
