This book differs from the standard theoretical texts on the psychology of memory. It offers a view of the role of memory in a variety of contexts, thus looking at its subject from many perspectives. I think the book offers an excellent companion text to a course on theories of memory. In addition, it may be of interest to the lay reader as well, because of its emphasis on practical aspects of memory, and because of of its clarification of many phenomena that give memories a mystical air. If you're interested in a thought-provoking psychology text, this is a book to go for.
