The Oxford Handbook of Human Memory, Two Volume Pack cover

The Oxford Handbook of Human Memory provides an authoritative overview of the science of human memory, its application to clinical disorders, and its broader implications for learning and memory in real-world contexts. Bringing together experts in the field, the Handbook integrates behavioral, neural, and computational evidence with current theories of how we learn and remember. Organized into two volumes and eleven sections, chapters cover foundational concepts, laws, and methods to study human memory; forms and attributes of memory; encoding and retrieval processes; interference, inhibition, and consolidation; memory distortion, inference, and prediction; individual differences and memory development; memory disorders and therapies; learning and memory in educational settings; and the role of memory in society. An authoritative and comprehensive treatment, The Oxford Handbook of Human Memory documents the current state of knowledge in the field and provides a roadmap for the next generation of memory scientists, established peers, and practitioners.
