Learning and Memory: The Basis of Behavior

This text aims to provide an integrated treatment of the major paradigms in learning and memory, organized around the themes of cognitive and associative approaches. Because of the organization and structured progression from simple to complex issues within each chapter, the book flows from one topic to another. Integration is further enhanced in the chapters on memory through the use of a single comprehensive model of the memory system as a framework for interpreting many of the major issues. Vignettes and review questions interspersed throughout each chapter promote student involvement with the text.
