Title: The encyclopedia of memory and memory disorders
First published: 1994
Description: About 60% of Americans have a "visual" memory, focusing easily on objects, places, and faces, while the remaining 40% are better at remembering sounds and words. Once thought to be the simple storage and retrieval of information, memory is now known to be incredibly complex, as are the ways in which diseases and disorders can affect the process of remembering.

With more than 700 entries, The Encyclopedia of Memory and Memory Disorders presents vital, up-to-date information on every facet of this health issue. Extensively cross-referenced, with bibliographies included at the end of each entry, The Encyclopedia of Memory and Memory Disorders is a handy reference for teachers, students, health professionals, and anyone interested in the subject.
