I've become increasingly fascinated by cognitive science, largely influenced by John Vervaeke. I wanted to pick up a textbook about it so I could get an introduction, and among the reputable ones, this was the shortest. When I first opened it I was a bit baffled. Crazy complex graphs that looked indecipherable. Thankful, I was mistaken. While difficult, most of them are quite accessible within the context of the book and the foundation it provides.

I understand why some people didn't rate this book too highly, as it's rather intimidating if you don't have a background with AI or supplemental resources that you can pull from in order to better understand/relate to. It might help to read Haugeland, Turing, and Newell before studying this book.
I'd say this textbook is about average, I'm rating it with an additional star as I appreciated how interdisciplinary it is.

If you want a book in which you will learn very little about Cognitive Science, but a whole lot of confusing details about AI, then this is the book for you. I hated reading this book, the writer assumes that you know everything about Cognitive Science and uses technical jargon throughout. Not for an introductory course, which is what I took.

Really frustrating experience. Do not recommend. There's a very accurate review/summary over on lesswrong (http://lesswrong.com/lw/il1/book_revi...).
I learned plenty from the book, but as So8res in the above review puts it, 'the book was a lot of noise with very little signal'. It could easily have been half the length. The target audience (if the author indeed intended one at all) is pitched far too low. His use and placement of diagrams indicates to me only that he knows textbooks like this sh...more

Read only one chapter of the book, for Uni classes but it's pretty neat. Written in simple language, explains a lot about basics of Cognitive Science.

More quotes… Cognitive Science combines the interdisciplinary streams of cognitive science into a unified narrative in an all-encompassing introduction to the field. This text presents cognitive science as a discipline in its own right, and teaches students to apply the techniques and theories of the cognitive scientist's 'toolkit' - the vast range of methods and tools that cognitive scientists use to study the mind. Thematically organized, rather than by separate disciplines, Cognitive Science underscores the problems and solutions of cognitive science, rather than those of the subjects that contribute to it - psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, etc. The generous use of examples, illustrations, and applications demonstrates how theory is applied to unlock the mysteries of the human mind. Drawing upon cutting-edge research, the text has been updated and enhanced to incorporate new studies and key experiments since the first edition. A new chapter on consciousness has also been added.
