Review of The Psychology of Human Learning

Abstract

Reviews the book, The Psychology of Human Learning by John A. McGeogh (1942). This text, as is indicated in an introduction by Professor Harvey A. Carr, grew out of the preparation for what was to have been a more comprehensive two-volume work. Most of the more or less traditional types of learning experiments and most of the subheadings under learning and memory are discussed. This book is fairly comprehensive and thoroughly up-to-date treatment of those topics which are usually subsumed under the headings of learning and memory. It will be found to be, this reviewer predicts, an extremely suitable textbook for courses in learning on a moderately advanced level. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
