Now in its fully revised and updated third edition, this classic reference and text brings together leading neuroscientists to describe current approaches to the study of memory. The volume has been completely rewritten to reflect the last decade's tremendous advances in the field - in particular, the emergence of neuroimaging as one of the most active areas of research. Other major approaches covered are lesions; electrophysiology; single-unit recording; pharmacology; and molecular genetics, including new work with genetically modified mice. Chapters are organized into three sections, presenting state-of-the-art studies of memory in humans, nonhuman primates, and rodents and birds. Each chapter explicates the theoretical and methodological underpinnings of the authors' research program, reviews the latest empirical findings, and identifies salient directions for future investigation. Included are more than 50 illustrations.
First published in 1992. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.

The rapid growth of interest in the neuropsychological and physiological mechanisms underlying memory has generated a vast amount of experimental work in recent years, This monumental book is the first on the neuropsychology of memory to provide a thorough survey of the very different conceptual and methodological foundations underlying, for example, studies of normal human memory based on amnesic patients and research on the function of specific brain structures showing how these diverse studies lead to a coherent picture of memory processes. Larry Squire and Nelson Butters have asked more than 50 leading scientists to discuss in this volume the assumptions, objectives, and key findings of their research programs; In the first section, comprising 25 chapters, investigators of human memory analyze the models of normal and abnormal memory suggested by the study of learning and development, Korsakoff syndrome and other types of amnesia, Alzheimer disease, and brain imaging techniques. In Section Two, researchers who have taken advantage of the wider experimental opportunities with animals outline their studies of remembering in nonhuman primates, especially in their application to human memory issues. Section Three, on nonprimates, concentrates on the contributions of physiological and pharmacological research to an understanding of behavior. Several chapters consider the behavioral implications of plasticity at the cellular level. NEUROPSYCHOLOGY OF MEMORY differs from other edited books on the subject not only in its broad and ambitious range, but also because of its rapid publication, which ensures presentation of the most recent insights and developments. Contributors have looked beyond their immediate findings to analyze the long-term objectives of their research. As editors, Squire and Butters have gathered these impressive contributions into a comprehensive and cohesive book, which will long remain an encyclopedic reference on the neuropsychological study of memory. In addition to its function as a reference for researchers in neuropsychology, neuroscience, and neurology. N° de réf. du vendeur 3688
