Forgetting is the most obvious feature of human memory, whether this
is everyday forgetfulness, like leaving your keys at home, or more
serious medical conditions, such as amnesia. Forgetting: Explaining
Memory Failure uses the most up-to-date evidence available to examine
the psychological processes behind these extremes and everything in
between. It explores why we have so little recollection of our
childhood lives, as well as why we may create false memories of events
that never happened. In this book, Michael Eysenck & David Groome
use cutting-edge research to examine one of the central issues in the
study of memory: forgetting. It challenges assumptions about the
processing of memory, offering insights into key debates, as well as
providing readers with the critical skills to develop their own
conclusions on the topic. With chapters from leading figures, this
book also emphasises the positive aspects of forgetting, an important
and often overlooked area in the field.
