Opis

The creation and consolidation of a memory can rest on the integration of any number of possibly disparate features and contexts - colour, sound, arousal, context. How is it that these bind together to form a coherent memory? This book offers an unrivaled overview of one of the most debated hotspots of modern memory research: binding. For all students and researchers in memory, the book will not only embrace their understanding in binding, but will instigate innovative and pioneering ideas for future research.

Recenzje

The publication of this volume marks the coming of age of cognitive neuroscience. The quest for the Holy Grail in psychology, the neural patterns encoding our daily experiences, has never seemed more close to fulfilment. It is hoped that the unique blend of experimental psychology and imaging neuroscience in this handbook will enthuse more graduate students and researchers to allocate their grey matter to the remaining grey areas.
