Brain damage can cause memory to break down in a number of different ways, the analysis of which can illuminate how the intact brain mediates memory processes. After first considering the problems involved in assessing memory, this book provisionally advances a taxonomy of eleme…
"Of all memories, those of emotionally arousing events tend to be the best remembered. Here, James L. McGaugh, who has long been at the forefront of research into the neurobiology of learning, explains why this is. Along the way he reveals exactly what we know, and what still re…
The authors have assembled contributions from the most visible and productive researchers working at the intersection of emotion and memory. The result is a sophisticated profile of our current understanding of how memory is shaped both by emotion and emotional disorder.
"The chapters in this volume showcase work that demonstrates how advancements in the field of reasoning rely on integrating findings, theories, and paradigms from the field of memory. This timely book offers an overview of this burgeoning area of research and will be of interest…
The Wiley Handbook on the Cognitive Neuroscience of Memory presents a comprehensive overview of the latest, cutting-edge neuroscience research being done relating to the study of human memory and cognition.
