This is the first of two volumes which together present the main
contributions from the 29th International Congress of Psychology,
held in Berlin in 2008, written by international leaders in
psychology from around the world. The authors present a variety of
approaches and perspectives that reflect cutting-edge advances in
psychological science.
Cognition and Neuropsychology is dedicated to summarizing and
characterizing the current scientific research in three substantive
content areas, (i) Perception, Attention, and Action, (ii) Social
Cognition, and (iii) Learning, Memory and Development. While some
of the contributions focus on relatively narrow areas of research,
others adopt a much broader stance, trying to understand and
explain many different facets of behaviour across widely differing
situations. Some contributions even try to bridge the fundamental
gap between behaviour and genetics. The final part contains two
chapters that discuss fundamental general issues in psychology,
such as the fate of mentalism and the significance of phenomenal
analyses. All chapters offer fascinating insights into current
theorizing on the mind, and are written by some of the best-known
scholars of our time.
This book will be an invaluable resource for researchers,
professionals, teachers and students in the field of
psychology.
