"...I found all of the chapters interesting…the PLM series have provided behavioral and cognitive researchers useful reviews and summaries of research as well as providing suggestions for future work. A number of landmark and influential papers have appeared in this series, and it seems that they will continue to appear." --PsycCRITIQUES
