Opis

The study of memory disorders is typically associated with investigations of the amnesic syndrome. There are, however, a wide range of other memory disorders following brain damage, and these are becoming increasingly important as neuropsychologists seek to unravel the complex mechanisms of human memory.

Recenzje

Ranging, as it does, from studies of focal retrograde amnesia studies to cognitive neuropsychiatry via neuroimaging research, the book is broad without being shallow, and it provides the reader with a valuable insight into new research directions as well as extant findings. - Jonathan K. Foster, University of Manchester
