Reviews

"""This volume pays tribute to the scholarly legacy of Bill Chase, whose contributions to the cognitive science of expertise inspired the work of each of its authors. The impressive body of work collected here reflects significant advances in understanding expertise and skill acquisition by those who have themselves become thought leaders in this area. Bill Chase inspired those who are inspiring others three decades later. That is true impact."" -Nancy J. Cooke, Ph.D., Arizona State University"
