Human memory: a constructivist view
Memory research has been so enamored of recent findings involving brain images and neurological underpinnings of transmitters, that it has seemingly moved away from understanding how who we are as individuals affects what we remember, why and how.

Summary
Memory research has been so enamored of recent findings involving brain images and neurological underpinnings of transmitters, that it has seemingly moved away from understanding how who we are as individuals affects what we remember, why and how.

This also affects what can be recall.
