Suggest Standard Text Books Please

Could somebody suggest a few names of textbooks that I can use to read up basics about memory, attention, language performance. If you've taken Memory and Cognition courses, what textbooks did they use? Where can I read up about Latent Semantic Analysis?

My intro to learning & memory course used the book "Learning and Memory" by Gluck, Mercado, & Myers.

I found a book called "Gateway to Memory" (neural network modeling of the hippocampus and learning) by the same authors..will look around for "Learning and Memory". Thanks.

I recently picked up "The Oxford Handbook of Memory," which has gotten very good reviews; it may be more specific (e.g. only memory) than you are looking for though.

So I've picked up the oxford handbook too.

What books do statistics (Psych) courses normally use or are there any that you'd recommend?

Tabachnik & Fidell, Using Multivariate Statistics is a very useful book to have around, especially for the sample APA style write-ups of different procedures.

Reisberg's Cognition: Exploring the Science of the Mind is a solid undergrad cognitive psychology text.

Pedhazur, E.J., & Schmelkin, L.P. (1991). Measurement, Designs, and Analysis: An Integrated Approach. (We used this in Advanced Methods I & II)

Gorsuch, R. L. (1983). Factor analysis (2nd ed.). (Methods III)

Raykov, T., & Marcoulides, G. A. (2000). A first course in structural equation modeling. (Methods III)

I also agree on the Tabachnick & Fidell book. (Used in Methods III and very helpful for all methods courses)

These are all texts that were standard in our program whether it be Human Factors, I/O, or Clinical

I use "statistics for psychology" by aron, aron and coups.

Though its an introductory textbook, it really helps walk you through the spss analyses and be able to calculate the stats yourself!

"Foundations of Statistical Natural Language Processing" by Manning and Schutze

"The Psychology of Language" by Whitney

Does anyone have these in ebook format? There are sites like gigapedia.org from where we can download these for free but couldn't find these anywhere. I couldn't find them in my library either. These are books that my adviser suggested I read before the quarter begins.
