Featuring a new chapter on group differences in long-term memory, areas covered also include cognitive neuroscience methods, human brain mechanisms underlying long-term memory success, long-term memory failure, implicit memory, working memory, memory and disease, memory in animals, and recent developments in the field. Both spatial and temporal aspects of brain processing during different types of memory are emphasized. Each chapter includes numerous pedagogical tools, including learning objectives, background information, further reading, review questions, and figures.

Recensioner i media

'If you want to know about memory, this is your book. Scott Slotnick not only reviews classic and cutting-edge research in all the usual areas, but also delves into hot topics such as group differences (e.g., sex, older people) in long-term memory and disorders of memory. Professor Slotnick brilliantly bridges the gap between complex neural mechanisms and everyday human experience. He has given us a broad overview of the field that is both engaging and enlightening. He has masterfully provided students and researchers with a thorough, rigorous, and remarkably accessible treatment of this important topic.' Stephen M. Kosslyn, Harvard University
