Features: In this book, the author connects contemporary research findings on memory with many important memory evidence in our daily lives. In this work, the author thoroughly examines every aspect of memory phenomena, such as how various types of memory are weakened or destroyed by diseases; how implicit memory operating below the level of consciousness affects our perception and behavior; how memory is transmitted across generations through culture and art; how our memories—and our selves—are constructed through past experiences and continue to be shaped by future life events; and so on.
