Synopsis

This new textbook is suitable for all upper level undergraduate and postgraduate students studying memory, learning or behavioural and cognitive neurosciences. Howard Eichenbaum is an eminent psychologist, and this new book provides insights into how memory works, and how it is essential for everything that we think, say, do and feel. Divided into four main themes, the book looks at connection, cognition, compartmentalisation and consolidation. Assuming little background knowledge of biology and psychology, this book encapsulates the major concepts in the field, and makes this area of research accessible to students who pursue a variety of related disciplines.

Revue de presse

" . . . a wonderful textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses. This long-overdue, accessible summary of the main findings of a fast-evolving field is likely to influence students of memory for years to come . . . The book is an impressive combination of scholarship and accessibility. The author's elegant pen and mastery of the subject does justice to complex ideas . . . yet does not sacrifice clarity." (Nature Neuroscience, Vol 5, No 12)
