Reviews
The important contribution of this book is its critical analysis of the different frameworks explaining cognitive aging....This book should be read by anyone doing or considering research in the field of cognitive aging. --Contemporary Psychology Salthouse provides a needed authoritative overview and theoretical synthesis of research on cognitive aging....A definitive reference work... --CHOICE Salthouse's scholarship is encyclopedic. Every chapter is chock-full of quotations and references. Readers who consider themselves expert in some topic will be grateful for citations of studies they have missed....Every theoretical issue is meticulously dissected....Problems in conceptualizing issues are laid out with greater clarity than....in any other volume on cognitive aging. The discussions of the environmental change and disuse perspectives are particularly noteworthy in these respects. This is a volume that no researcher in cognitive aging can afford to miss. --The Amercian Journal of Psychology ...a major scholarly achievement....I view this provocative and excellent volume as must reading for anyone conducting research in cognitive aging. --Behavior, Health, and Aging
