Designed to be used as a self-help manual or as a student text in a memory-improvement course, Improving Your Memory enables adults to understand how memory works, how it changes with age, and how it can be improved with training and practice. In clear, concise language, the authors describe the memory process, discuss conditions that can affect anyone's memory--such as depression, illness, or stress--and offer practical memory improvement techniques. Examples and exercises are included in the workbook-style manual to demonstrate concepts and techniques and their application in daily life.

"The finest handbook we've seen on the subject." -- Modern Maturity
"A good handbook on memory improvement... The best way to deal with mild memory loss is the use of memory aids and a good sense of humor." -- Creative Retirement
"One of the most complete memory training guides available. The examples are age-appropriate and engaging... Techniques range from the ever-popular 'Tips and Tricks' to more effortful techniques such as story construction and categorization. This volume has clearly emerged from considerable practical experience with conducting memory courses." -- Contemporary Gerontology
