Memory

Vintage Pelican. #A405. Memory by I. M. L. Hunter is a concise, accessible exploration of how human memory works, blending psychology, neurology, and everyday experience. Hunter explains the mechanisms behind remembering and forgetting, the role of attention and emotion, and the ways memory can be distorted or improved. Written in clear mid-century scientific prose, it offers an engaging introduction to cognitive science before the field had its modern terminology, making it appealing both as a period piece and as a readable primer on the mind. A strong choice for collectors of classic psychology, Pelican-style science writing, and early cognitive studies.
