The great majority of books on artificial intelligence are written by AI experts who understandably focus on its achievements and potential transformative effects on society. In contrast, AI vs Humans is written by two psychologists (Michael and Christine Eysenck) whose perspective on AI (including robotics) is based on their knowledge and understanding of human cognition.This book evaluates the strengths and limitations of people and AI. The authors’ expertise equips them well to consider this by seeing how well (or badly) AI compares to human intelligence. They accept that AI matches or exceeds human ability in many spheres such as mathematical calculations, complex games (e.g., chess, Go, and poker), diagnosis from medical images, and robotic surgery.However, the human tendency to anthropomorphise has led many people to claim mistakenly that AI systems can think, infer, reason, and understand while engaging in information processing. In fact, such systems lack all those cognitive skills and are also deficient in the quintessentially human abilities of flexibility of thinking and general intelligence.At a time when human commitment to AI appears unstoppable, this up-to-date book advocates a symbiotic and co-operative relationship between humans and AI. It will be essential reading for anyone interested in AI and human cognition.

This is a thorough revision and updating of the extremely successful third edition. As in previous editions, the following three perspectives are considered in depth: experimental cognitive psychology; cognitive science, with its focus on cognitive modelling; and cognitive neuropsychology with its focus on cognition following brain damage. In addition, and new to this edition, is detailed discussion of the cognitive neuroscience perspective, which uses advanced brain-scanning techniques to clarify the functioning of the human brain. There is detailed coverage of the dynamic impact of these four perspectives on the main areas of cognitive psychology, including perception, attention, memory, knowledge representation, categorisation, language, problem-solving, reasoning, and judgement. The aim is to provide comprehensive coverage that is up-to-date, authoritative, and accessible. All existing chapters have been extensively revised and re-organised. Some of the topics receiving much greater coverage in this edition are: brain structures in perception, visual attention, implicit learning, brain structures in memory, prospective memory, exemplar theories of categorisation, language comprehension, connectionist models in perception, neuroscience studies of thinking, judgement, and decision making. Cognitive Psychology: A Students Handbookwill be essential reading for undergraduate students of psychology. It will also be of interest to students taking related courses in computer science, education, linguistics, physiology, and medicine.

Kniha světově uznávaných autorů představuje souhrnnou práci o jednom z nejširších a nejvýznamnějších psychologických oborů – kognitivní psychologii – a je určena především ke studiu. Práce reflektuje nejnovější výzkumné výsledky v této oblasti a obsahuje i informativní diskusi o teoretickém, empirickém a metodologickém kontextu vývoje kognitivní psychologie. Prezentuje jak základy kognitivní psychologie, tak všechny významné teorie, přístupy, metody a poznatky. Ty jsou vysvětleny, hodnoceny a shrnuty tak, aby si čtenář mohl vytvořit i vlastní kritický názor. Díky těmto charakteristikám je Eysenckova a Keanova Kognitivní psychologie, která vyšla anglicky již v pěti vydáních, „příručkou“ takového druhu, že ji čtenáři budou chtít mít stále „po ruce“. Text je navíc doplněn množstvím názorných obrázků a grafů. Kromě studentů psychologie a psychologů zaujme publikace nepochybě i pedagogy, lékaře, lingvisty, fyziology a odborníky na informační technologie.
