- "Numerical Cognition:The Basics provides an accessible and concise introduction to the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying our ability to perceive, process and combine numerical information. The book covers the full breadth of this growing field, including the evolutionary origins of numerical capacities, life-span development, the cognitive mechanisms and strategies during mental arithmetic, and dysfunctional development. Written in student-friendly language, and featuring pointers to useful websites, the book seeks to explain the psychological and neurofunctional mechanisms that underpin one of the most crucial cultural techniques in modern societies"-- Provided by publisher.
