Lieberman's (psychology, U. of Stirling, Scotland) introductory text on learning and memory teaches a deep understanding of fundamental ideas rather than a breadth of topics. Topics include Pavlov and classical conditioning; phobias and addictions; Thorndike's law of effect; the use of praise to transform the behavior of disruptive children; memory computer models; the Atkinson-Shiffrin model; sensory and working memory; and retrieval. Experimental exercises that can be performed using a computer simulated rat (available separately) in an operant chamber. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
