• Summary:In its second edition, this textbook provides an up-to-date account of the brain's remarkable capacity for memory. In understanding how memory works, we can learn how we remember and forget and how to better treat disorders of memory. The second edition highlights new evidence from functional brain imaging studies in human subjects, new findings about the functional organization of the medial temporal lobe memory system, a major update on memory consolidation and re-consolidation, new findings on the role of the prefrontal cortex in memory, and updates on our understanding of the circuitry of.
