Title: Cognition text alternatives
I too have been looking for alternatives to the standard cognitive text, and am considering using several paperbacks covering different topics. I do want to include memory, so there are a couple of possibilities on my list. With the help of several people on TIPS (thank you, all) and some browsing at the online bookstores, I have found a substantial number of intriguing possibilities. Here are some I am currently reading, but there are certainly more as well. I don't know if I can pull some group together for next semester, but they will certainly give me some new material to talk about in class.
