A good lower undergrad cognitive book is Reed's. I have used almost all of the
ones around at one time or another, or reviewed them, and
unfortunately, I find
that MOST of them really are written to do double duty for undergrad and grad.

Quoting "Pollak, Edward " <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Carol Furchner asked "Next year (2006-2007) I plan to teach either
Cognitive Psychology or Biological Psychology (or one of each). I am
looking for textbook recommendations for sophomore-level courses at a
two-year branch college. The prereq for cognitive is intro to psych,
and the prereq for biological is either intro to psych or intro to
biology. Most students will not have taken statistics or research
methods. I expect my approach will lean more towards concepts and
applications than theories."
We've been teaching a 2oo level biopsych course for years. The clear
favorite with both students & faculty is Jim Kalat's book. I would
only warn you not to attempt more than 11-12 chapters in a semester
if you want to keep it at the 200 level. You can see my syllabus at
