During the Second World War, Air Commodore Waltby is flying to
Allied Command Headquarters with an attaché case packed with
information that could stave off an invasion by Germany.
Unfortunately, his plane is shot down and he and three colleagues
are left drifting in a lifeboat in the North Sea - with the vital
intelligence reports still not in the hands of Allied Command. As
the Allied authorities direct the search, the four men are edging
closer to death and the Germans are planning their assault.
Rare photographs recall interiors of late Victorian mansions belonging to William H. Vanderbilt, J.P. Morgan, U.S. Grant, and many others. New informative text.

Drawing on a modern neurocognitive framework, this full-color
textbook introduces the entire field of cognition through an
engaging narrative. Emphasizing the common neural mechanisms that
underlie all aspects of perception, learning, and reasoning, the
text encourages students to recognize the interconnectivity between
cognitive processes. Elements of social psychology and
developmental psychology are integrated into the discussion,
leading students to understand and appreciate the connection
between cognitive processing and social behavior. Numerous learning
features provide extensive student support: chapter summaries
encourage students to reflect on the main points of each chapter;
end-of-chapter questions allow students to review their
understanding of key topics; approximately two hundred figures,
photos, and charts clarify complex topics; and suggestions for
further reading point students to resources for deeper self-study.
The textbook is also accompanied by eight hundred multiple-choice
questions, for use before, during, and after class, which have been
proven to dramatically improve student understanding and exam
performance.
