First published in 1958, this book has become recognized as a classic in its field, marking a transition between behaviorist learning theory and the modern 'information-processing' or cognitive approach to perception and mental skills. The work continues to provide a principal starting point for theoretical and experimental work on selective attention. It will make compelling reading for psychologists and others interested in the recent history of psychology.

An Impactful, Classic Book,
By
This review is from: Perception and Communication (Paperback)
Those interested in the history of the contemporary study of attention should start here. Broadbent's ideas shaped much of the research on attention in the 1960s and beyond.Note that book is still available through the American Psychological Association (APA) as a print-on-demand paperback book for about $50 (see the APA Books section of APA Online). No sense buying a marked-up old used copy for a good deal more money from a rare book seller.
