Recenzje

"The reader should be encouraged to accept the many significant findings in the applications of cognitive psychology presented throughout this book as useful starting points for developing further applications. These reports are not prepared as manuals for practice, but many next steps have been opened up, and the initial purpose -- to show that applications can be found for conceptions that have emerged in the course of studies of cognition, has clearly been achieved, and the invitation is clear for further developments."
—Ernest R. Hilgard
