Human Memory

by Gabriel A. Radvansky

Provides students with a guide to human memory, its properties, theories about how it works, and how studying it can help us understand who we are and why we do the things that we do.

For undergraduate and graduate courses in Human Memory.

This book provides a very broad range of topics covering more territory than most books. In addition to some coverage of basic issues of human memory and cognition that are of interest to researchers in the field, the chapters also cover issues that will be relevant to students with a range of interests including those students interested in clinical, social, and developmental psychology, as well as those planning on going on to medical and law schools. The writing is aimed at talking directly to students (as opposed to talking down to them) in a clear and effective manner. Not too dense, but also not too conversational as well. This 2nd edition includes a series of exercises that allow the student to try out the concepts and principles conveyed in the chapters, or to use as the basis for exploring their own ideas.

nesinori, kad moksliniai skaitalai būtų neužskaityti :D
prasikankinau su šita knyga, bet kaip studijom- sakyčiau, kad informacijos pateikimas visai patiko :)

TBH. . . I didn't finish this book. It just got so heavy. I was on this book for a month and only got through 16 pages. Maybe another time? I'm sure it's a good book.
