The Encyclopedia of Memory & Memory Disorders

This book provides a wealth of complex information about human memory in plain language for the general reader, the journalist, the family member of a person with a memory disorder such as Alzheimer's, and even the medical or mental health professional who is lacking the expertise to understand the highly technical professional literature on human memory. Many entries in this book summarize the most important ideas about human memory that have been proposed since the times of Plato and Aristotle.
