The Cognitive Neuroscience of Metacognition by Stephen M. FlemingEnglish | PDF | 2014 | 398 Pages | ISBN : 3642451896 | 7.6 MB
Metacognition is the capacity to reflect upon and evaluate cognition and behaviour.

By combining brain imaging, computational modeling, neuropsychology and insights from psychiatry, the present book offers a picture of the metacognitive functions of the brain.
