Publisher's Synopsis
Based on Ashcraft's best-selling text Human Memory, 2/e, this shorter and more accessible alternative provides the ideal balance of depth and breadth of coverage for a one-semester introductory undergraduate course. In addition, the text contains cutting-edge coverage of the brain in a separate chapter and superior coverage of often neglected topics, including Biederman's object recognition theory and coverage of "forgotten" and eyewitness memory.
