Cognitive Science: An Introduction to the Science of the Mind

Autor José Luis Bermúdez
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 noi 2022
The fourth edition of this popular text has been significantly rewritten to make it more accessible to students and easier for instructors to use. It remains distinctive in presenting a unified narrative of cognitive science as a field of inquiry in its own right. Thematically organized, Cognitive Science underscores the problems and solutions of cognitive science rather than more narrowly examining individually the subjects that contribute to it - psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, and so on. The generous use of examples, illustrations, and applications demonstrates how theory and experiment can be applied to unlock the mysteries of the human mind. Drawing upon cutting-edge research, the text has been updated and enhanced with a new chapter on emotions and the emerging field of affective science. An extensive online set of resources is available to aid both instructors and students.

Recenzii

'In this tour de force in both content and organization, Bermúdez has masterfully distilled complex ideas into an elixir that is easy to swallow. There is little doubt students' interest will be piqued and existing conceptions challenged. Given the relevance of cognitive science to understanding ourselves and others (human or otherwise), I consider this an invaluable service.' Nicholas Duran, Arizona State University
'Bermúdez successfully navigates a lucid path through the maze of multidisciplinarity that is cognitive science. He paints a rich and coherent picture of the science of the mind from its key historical insights through to groundbreaking applications. A wonderful book that is sure to fascinate and engage our students.' Peter Cheng, University of Sussex
'The latest edition of Bermúdez's groundbreaking textbook continues where the earlier editions left off. There is an incredible amount of cutting-edge information and theory, all presented in an accessible style with exercises, diagrams, and checklists to help the student along. This is essential reading for undergraduate courses in all core areas of cognitive science.' Michael Wilby, Anglia Ruskin University
