Routledge Forgetting: Current Issues in Memory - Psychology Book

Memory and forgetting are inextricably intertwined, and understanding how memory works requires exploring how and why we forget. This comprehensive volume from Psychology Press addresses various aspects of forgetting, drawing from multiple disciplines including experimental and cognitive psychology, cognitive and clinical neuropsychology, behavioural neuroscience, neuroimaging, clinical neurology, and computational modeling. The book explores the historical foundations of forgetting research whilst examining contemporary findings and theoretical frameworks. By integrating perspectives from both established and emerging fields, the work provides readers with a thorough understanding of forgetting mechanisms and their relationship to memory function. This scholarly resource is essential for students, researchers, and practitioners seeking to deepen their knowledge of how forgetting shapes human cognition and behaviour.
