Cognitive Psychology
Sternberg's text balances accessible writing, practical applications, and research scholarship, interweaving biology throughout the text. Utilizing the theme that human cognition has evolved over time as a means of adapting to our environment, Sternberg explores the basics of cognitive psychology through its coverage of cognitive neuroscience, attention and consciousness, perception, memory, knowledge representation, language, problem solving and creativity, decision making and reasoning, cognitive development, and intelligence. Sternberg provides the most comprehensive coverage of any cognitive psychology text available; a "from lab to life" approach covering theory, lab and field research, and applications to everyday life (like driving while talking on a cell phone and airport security)..

Frida Kahlo: Song of Herself
Frida Kahlo’s extraordinary life has been well documented, but until now little has been known about the artist’s thoughts on her internal and external reality. In Song of Herself, Kahlo expert and child psychiatrist Salomon Grimberg introduces and contextualizes an intimate, deeply introspective interview that Kahlo gave towards the end of her life to her friend the psychologist Olga Campos for an unpublished book on the creative process. Kahlo comments directly and starkly as never before on her life, her loves and her art, and expresses her attitudes towards sexuality, her body, friendship, politics and death, among other personal concerns. The most revealing autobiographical text known on this singular woman, this startling interview is accompanied here by Campos’s reflections on her relationship with Kahlo and a psychological assessment of Kahlo by Dr James Bridger Harris. The book is illustrated with selected photographs and works by Kahlo, including previously unseen and rarely seen drawings..

Politics & Pot Roast: An Unofficial, Unauthorized & Completely Unclassified Cookbook
This bipartisan cookbook features flavorful recipes and amusing anecdotes of U.S. Presidents and First Ladies. ? Did you know that F.D.R. liked to eat moose meat with grape jelly? ? Did you know that Lincoln’s son, Tad, once interrupted a formal tea by riding through on a kitchen chair that was pulled by his pet goats? ? Did you know that the night of Grant’s inaugural ball was so cold that the guests danced with their coats on, and the food froze solid? ? Would you like the recipe that Mrs. Lincoln used when Abe was courting? ? Would you rather have the recipe for Abigail Adams’ Apple Pan Dowdy, or Mamie Eisenhower’s Million Dollar Fudge? This new cookbook features original or favorite recipes from every presidency and provides a glimpse into both the glamorous and austere administrations. President Van Buren was criticized for giving extravagant dinners and at one party he was reported to have run around the room pretending to be a turkey. President Chester Arthur was nicknamed "Elegant Arthur" because he changed clothes for every occasion, and he was reported to own eighty pairs of pants. On the other hand, the Hayes administration was very austere, and all alcohol, dancing, and card playing were banned from the White House. When their niece was married in the Blue Room, the couple was toasted with lemonade, and Mrs. Hayes became known as "Lemonade Lucy.".
