Involuntary Memory

John H. Mace is Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of New Haven.

"The wide range of topics covered makes this book appealing for a broad audience, of basic and applied researchers.... The writing is generally clear and easily accessible for final year undergraduates.... Useful for researchers interested in specific populations or topics." (Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2009)"Mace does offer the public a comprehensive text that provides one of the most integrative works on involuntary memory. This book puts forth the most groundbreaking research done so far on involuntary memory and would benefit students and professionals eager to dive into one of the most complex grooves of the human psyche." (PsycCRITIQUES)"This first-of-its-kind book point[s] out that much of the research ... has been published in the last ten years. Therein lies much of the book's appeal." (North American Journal of Psychology)
