<p><i>"...a major contribution to responsible scholarship, not only an idiosyncratic gift to an influential theorist, keen observer of the human condition, ingenious experimenter, and inspiring teacher by some of many colleagues whose lives have been enriched by their contact with Asch and his thought. This fine Festschrift enticingly invites the reader to participate in serious thinking about the rich and diverse legacy."</i><br />—<b><i>American Journal of Psychology</i></b></p>

This volume honors Solomon Asch, a pioneer in social psychology whose experiments in this field are considered classic. Asch has made important contributions to the fields of memory, learning and thinking, and perception along with extending Gestalt theories to social psychology research.

Former students and colleagues honor Asch with essays that either expand on his research or describe original research on new topics of related interest. An interesting and informative text for faculty and researchers in the fields of cognition and perception as well as social, experimental, and personality psychology.
