Cognitive Science
“Cognitive Science is the first major text to offer a truly comprehensive review of cognitive science in its fullest sense. Ranging from artificial intelligence models of neural processes and cognitive psychology to recent discursive and cultural theories, Rom HarrĂ© offers an original yet accessible integration of the field. At its core, this textbook addresses the question ‘How can psychology become a science?’. The answer is based on a clear account of method and explanation in the natural sciences and how they can be adapted to psychological research.” – pubisher’s blurb.
