Memory: From Mind to Molecules Larry Squire

Combining insights from both cognitive neuroscience and molecular biology, two of the world's leading experts address memory from molecules and cells to brain systems and cognition. What is memory and where in the brain is it stored? How is memory storage accomplished? This book touches on these questions and many more, showing how the recent convergence of psychology and biology has resulted in an exciting new synthesis of knowledge about learning and remembering.

Memory Bewertungen

In a book that is as fascinating as it is authoritative, Larry Squire and Eric Kandel explain the insights and breakthroughs that have illuminated the mysteries of memory. -- Daniel L. Schacter, Author of Searching for Memory Few areas of neuroscience are ready to boast of an understanding that spans from molecules to minds. Memory is ready, and Squire and Kandel, two of the leading researchers who got us there, take us on a delightful journey, explaining not just current facts but also the often fascinating history behind the big discoveries. I loved it and recommend this very readable and beautifully illustrated book to all who want to know how memory works. -- Joseph LeDoux, Author of The Emotional Brain
