Overview
What is memory & where in the brain is it stored? How is memory storage accomplished? Combining the latest from both psychology & biology, two of the world's leading experts address these key questions in Memory, the first book to offer an up-to-date, comprehensive overview of memory from molecules & cells to brain systems & cognition. Memory outlines the historical roots of the recent convergence of psychology & biology & shows how their combined strength has resulted in an exciting new synthesis of knowledge about learning & remembering. New discoveries include the existence of multiple memory systems that divide up the workload of remembering. New discoveries include the existence of multiple memory systems that divide up the workload of remembering (one handles facts & past experiences, another handles motor & perceptual strategies, etc...) & how memory storage leads to changes in the function & anatomical structure of specific connections between the nerve cells of the brain. Other issues explored in Memory include: What happens in the brain to determine whether we remember something for a long time? - Is memory stored at a particular place in the brain? - How reliable are our memories? What makes memories deteriorate? - Why is it harder to remember as we get older? - How do emotions influence memory? - Are there unconscious memories? Written by two scientists responsible for some of he most fundamental research in the field, & full of real-life examples & four-color illustrations, Memory is perfect for general audiences who are interested in discovering what is currently known about one of the most fundamental aspects of human existence.
