Reviews

a fascinating book that I would definitely recommend to all interested in memory phenomena. Applied Cognitive Psychology Rallied under the banner of 'concepts,' these chapters are a treasure trove of theories, controversies, methodologies, and findings. PsycCRITIQUES ...our understanding of memory systems has advanced considerably and will continue to do so...[this book] can break down conceptual barriers and push the field into new directions...and inspires us to think more generally about the relationship between various learning and memory traditions; it will have broad academic appeal.
