Synopsis
David Morgan incisively explains the fundamental principles of learning and cognition, presenting these concepts as processes that allow animals, including humans, to adapt over time to complex environments. Thus, he consistently applies the theme of adaptation, emphasizing the distinction between phylogenic adaptation (biological evolution) and ontogenic adaptation (including learning). Morgan's engaging style employs a minimum of jargon, resulting in an insightful and a rewarding reading experience. Concepts are skillfully applied to daily life in chapter-opener vignettes, many of which focus on unique challenges that students face.

"The adaptionist approach is current and the theme holds up throughout. I think it is attractive to most instructors and is an excellent way for students to understand what are essentially very complex concepts." --Mary M. Brazier, Loyola University, New Orleans
"The interim summaries and running glossary are excellent features that help break the material into digestible chunks." --David J. Renner, West Chester University of Pennsylvania
