Many texts in cognitive psychology deal with the details of cognitive processes as individually defined. This text provides an account of cognition that focuses upon the cumulative and share nature of human enterprise. It aims to adopt a balanced approach by considering both theories. The result is a wide ranging detour that starts off with cognitive science, then diverts into the domains of developmental and social psychology before ending up in territory that is normally occupied by historians and evolutionary biologists.

This is a fascinating book, quite unlike anything else in the textbook literature of cognitive psychology. It does what very few other texts attempt: to set the study of cognition in its wider context. In doing so it raises issues which are otherwise liable to be skirted round, and brings to readers ideas and information which they would probably never have encountered. - K.I. Manktelow, University of Wolverhampton
This is a well written book covering much ground not usually touched on by texts in cognitive psychology. It is also well aimed at final year psychology students, and should be of interest, as a wide ranging background survey, to postgraduate students of cognitive psychology and cognitive science. - David Over, University of Sunderland
