Reviews
'A go-to resource for both novice and expert researchers, this timely handbook takes a life course perspective on cognitive aging - from biology to culture. Expert chapters synthesize new evidence in core cognitive domains, review novel approaches to interventions and lifespan trajectories, and offer fresh perspectives on emotional, social, and lifestyle influences on the aging mind.' Patricia A. Reuter-Lorenz 'The Cambridge Handbook of Cognitive Aging is a comprehensive compendium of cutting-edge perspectives by a veritable who's who of experts in the field. This informative and innovative volume will be an invaluable resource for years to come.' Margie E. Lachman, Minnie and Harold Fierman Professor of Psychology, Brandeis University 'This handbook, which provides a comprehensive review by leading researchers of age-related changes in cognitive functioning, is unique in assessing the emerging role of experiential, environmental, social, emotional, and other life-course factors in cognitive aging. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in human aging.'

Author Information
Ayanna K. Thomas is Professor of Psychology at Tufts University, Massachusetts. She takes a translational approach to the study of memory and age-related changes in cognition by applying basic science findings to areas such as eyewitness memory, education, and cognitive aging. Angela Gutchess is Associate Professor of Psychology at Brandeis University, Massachusetts, with appointments in the Neuroscience Program and the Volen Center for Complex Systems. Her research investigates the influence of age and culture on memory and social cognition, using behavioral, neuroimaging (fMRI), electrophysiological (EEG), and patient research methods.
