Synopsis:
The goal of this book is to provide the reader with a guide to human memory, its properties, and theories about how it works and how an understanding of it can help understand who we are and why we do the things that we do. The author focuses on the fundamentals of how our memory works and how it is studied.
From the Back Cover: Here’s an exciting new book on human memory, offering theories about how memory works and how studying it can help us understand who we are and why we do the things we do.
Human Memory opens with an historical chapter on memory research, which is followed by complete coverage of different types of memory — including sensory and short-term memory, working memory, non-declarative and episodic long-term memory, memory for space and time, semantic memory, formal models of long-term memory, and autobiographical memory. A unique focus on Memory and Reality and Memory and the Law adds interest for the introductory student. Also included is a complete chapter on Memory and Development, and detailed coverage of amnesia and other memory disorders.
