Cognition 101: How We Acquire Knowledge, Gain Understanding, and Make Decisions [Audiobook]

Learn practical, easy-to-apply tips to improve your thinking, reasoning, and decision making with an NIH-funded cognitive science professor and textbook author. Cognitive psychology - the science of how we acquire, process, store, and use information - is essential to understanding the human experience. Yet, cognition is such an automatic part of our daily functioning that we rarely take time to think about how it works or how we might improve it. Professor Kathleen Marie Galotti will take you on a tour of higher-order cognitive processes such as problem-solving, creativity, reasoning, and decision making - in other words, how we put information to use.
