A brief mention is made of ethological and physiological matters. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt argues that cognition is a stepping-stone to integration with allied sciences. A large-scale study of the organism-as-a-whole needs to be supplemented by other biological and logical studies, but preparatory to this, cognitive psychologists must try and discover more rigorous ways of presenting their theories and models, since the mode of communicating an idea can never be wholly separated from that idea.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFurthermore cognition, even at the organism-as-a-whole level, needs to broaden out and link up with social studies and studies in personality and individual difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book, pointed to a new direction that psychology should take; without contributing greatly to existing knowledge in the obvious sense, it suggests new methods and new ways of regarding the existing knowledge at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frank George\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138919853\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138919853\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Psychology Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/21\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Frank George","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48438157705471,"sku":"9781138919853","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6a5372ed-10f4-49f9-b368-85bb4664ab94.jpg?v=1777169204","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cognition-frank-george-9781138919853","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
