About this title

From the Back Cover:

The Wiley Blackwell Handbook on the Cognitive Neuroscience of Memory presents a comprehensive overview of the latest, cutting-edge neuroscience research being done relating to the study of human memory and cognition. Featuring contributions from an international cast of leading experts in episodic, semantic, and working memory research, the chapters in this handbook summarize the innovative work currently being done in the field by scientists and their peers in each contributor’s area of expertise. A wide range of methodological approaches are addressed, including fMRI, EEG, TMS, and neuropsychology—with a strong emphasis on the latest analysis techniques within each of these measurement approaches. Scholarly yet readily accessible to those with minimal experience in the field, The Wiley Blackwell Handbook on the Cognitive Neuroscience of Memory is an invaluable reference to the current state—and future potential—of human memory research.

Audrey Duarte is an Assistant Professor in The School of Psychology at the Georgia Institute of Technology. She has published numerous EEG, fMRI, and neuropsychological studies related to age-related changes in episodic memory functioning and holds the current Early Career Goizueta Professor Chair at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

Morgan Barense is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Toronto. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge in 2006. Dr. Barense has published extensively on how memory functions are organized within the human brain and how memory relates to other cognitive processes, such as perception. She has received many accolades for this work, including a Canada Research Chair in Cognitive Neuroscience and a Scholar Award from the James S. McDonnell Foundation.

Donna Rose Addis is an Associate Professor and Rutherford Discovery Fellow in the School of Psychology at The University of Auckland. She received her PhD from the University of Toronto in 2005 and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard University. She has published 60 articles and chapters on autobiographical memory, future thinking and identity. Dr Addis has received a number of honours for her work in this area, including the prestigious New Zealand Prime Minister’s MacDiarmid Emerging Scientist Prize.
