Covering cognitive experiments, patients with memory disorders, the areas of the brain involved in memory, and the cognitive theory that links this research together, Memory: Foundations and Applications offers a unique emphasis on how an understanding of the science of memory can be applied to education, police investigations, courtrooms, memory clinics, and everyday life. In addition, this innovative book shows students how to use these principles to improve their own ability to learn and remember.
