Originally published in 1982, this book brings together two areas of research previously studied in parallel, with little interaction (particularly in the US): normal memory processing and the amnesic syndrome. When trying to document the relationship between the two it became apparent that there was much crossover and duplication of effort in a number of areas: whether long-term memory and short-term memory truly represent independent storage systems, or are simply points on a continuum; trying to determine the primary locus of variables influencing the rate at which information is lost during retention; whether episodic memory and semantic memory represent two different storage systems, or are simply artifacts produced by different kinds of query to a single memory system and finally, whether visual and verbal memory are independent. It was written, following a meeting in 1979, by a small group of investigators, brought together to explore this commonality and to share data and theory, thus beginning the promise of a bright future of interdisciplinary interaction in memory research.

Il dottor Mathias Freire non è un uomo privo di ricordi. Al contrario, ne è ossessionato. Perché i suoi ricordi sono troppi e diversi. E sembrano appartenere ad altre persone. Tanto che, sempre più spesso, Mathias perde ogni sicurezza, perfino su quale sia il suo vero nome. Oggi, a Bordeaux, Mathias è uno psichiatra. È alle prese con un caso difficile, deve ipnotizzare un uomo in stato confusionale, unico testimone di un brutale assassinio alla stazione. L'ipnosi e un alibi di ferro confermano l'estraneità dell'uomo al delitto. Mathias deve indagare ancora. Ma prima di poterlo fare, scampa per un soffio a un tentativo di omicidio. Fuggito su un treno per Marsiglia, ben presto scopre di essere ricercato dalla polizia. Qualcuno ha riconosciuto in lui un clochard, non lo psichiatra che crede di essere. E lo accusa del delitto della stazione. D'un tratto Mathias non ricorda più nulla e non sa più chi è. Ha perso la memoria. È successo un'altra volta: sa che quando la ritroverà, sarà un altro. Un barbone a Marsiglia, un pittore folle a Nizza, un falsario a Parigi. Mathias deve fuggire e allo stesso tempo scoprire chi è veramente. Lui è l'ombra in agguato e allo stesso tempo la preda. Ma potrebbe anche essere l'assassino... Sulla strada della verità non ha alternative che fidarsi di un ricordo, di una sensazione, di un momento, di un incontro. E trovare il coraggio di affrontare il pericolo più grande. Sé stesso. Tradotto in trenta lingue, Jean-Christophe Grangé è uno degli autori di thriller più venduti in tutto il mondo. Con Amnesia ha superato sé stesso, vendendo in solo un mese 300.000 copie e piazzandosi così al primo posto dei bestseller francesi. Una storia diabolicamente costruita che, grazie a una trama labirintica e a un colpo di scena dopo l'altro, ci conduce nei meandri più oscuri, inquietanti e inesplorati dell'animo umano.

In this text, Neal J. Cohen and Howard Eichenbaum bring together converging findings from neuropsychology, neuroscience and cognitive science that provide the critical clues and constraints for developing a more comprehensive understanding of memory. Specifically, they offer a cognitive neuroscience theory of memory that accounts for the nature of memory impairment exhibited in human amnesia and animal models of amnesia, that specifies the functional role played by the hippocampal system in memory, and that provides further understanding of the componential structure of memory.

Amnesia: Clinical, Psychological and Medicolegal Aspects, 2nd Edition explores the clinical, psychological, and medicolegal aspects of amnesia. Experimental studies of the organic amnesic syndrome are presented and memory disorders associated with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) are described. The role of amnesia in cerebral disease, the neuropathology of amnesic states, and psychogenic memory loss are also considered. This book is comprised of 11 chapters and begins with a discussion on experimental studies of the organic amnesic syndrome, along with certain associated studies of normal memory. The reader is then introduced to the link between amnesia and cerebral pathology; transient global amnesia and its clinical manifestations; the amnesic syndrome and its relation to Korsakoff syndrome; traumatic amnesia; amnesias of temporal lobe origin; and memory disorders following ECT. A neuropathological examination of the human brain in cases of amnesia is presented, and examples of the psychopathology of memory are provided. The final chapter analyzes amnesia from a medicolegal point of view. This monograph will be of interest to clinicians, neurologists, psychiatrists, psychopathologists, psychologists, and medicolegal practitioners.

Memory and Amnesia provides a clear and comprehensive account of amnesia set in the context of our understanding of how normal memory operates. Part I provides the reader with an up-to-date survey of contemporary memory theories along with an account of the various methods for improving memory ability. Part II begins with an overview of memory assessment which incorporates all important new developments, and focuses on the nature and explanation of the amnesic syndrome. A new chapter deals with the emerging field of memory disorders linked to frontal lobe dysfunction, related to which is an entirely new approach to the study of age-related memory loss. The account of dementia is extended and includes a discussion of comparisons between different forms of the illness. The chapters on transient amnesic states and on psychogenic states are fully updated (including discussion of the false memory debate), and the significant advances in memory remediation are discussed in the last chapter.

Unapologetic, unafraid and unyielding, Alfian’s second collection of verse delves in greater depth the concerns in his first volume and moves into reclaiming our collective history and memory. In mining our psyche, he casts light where whispers and shadows lurk. He draws inspiration from censored histories, subsumed myths and invokes imagined voices from the exiled, demanding of the reader to witness the ubiquitous ideological fictions that surround us. This is one of the most dissonant and penetrating voices in Singapore poetry. • A History of Amnesia is listed in the notable books list by the Kiriyama Pacific Rim Book Award (administered by University of San Francisco). • A History of Amnesia is also shortlisted for Singapore Literature Prize in 2004.

Enough has been learnt about the organic amnesia syndrome for research to be driven by theoretical ideas about the possible causes of the memory deficits underlying it. These theoretical ideas attempt to specify whether one or several distinct functional deficits cause the memory problems typically seen in the syndrome, what the precise nature of these deficits actually is, and what is the exact location of the lesions that cause them.; This special issue of "Memory" is devoted to articles that advance different accounts of some or all of the features of amnesia. It highlights that, although there is still no full agreement about the neuroanatomy of amnesia, whether it is a unitary condition, and the causes of and relationship between anterograde and retrograde amnesia, many theories converge in suggesting that damage to the hippocampus and its connections dirupts aspects of memory for complex associations that are ultimately represented in the neocortex.
