Déjà vu and Other Dissociative States in Memory

This book collates the work of world-leading researchers on d?j? vu and other dissociative states of memory and presents a snapshot of the state of the art in research on these strange phenomena.

D?j? vu is the eerie feeling of familiarity for something that you know you have not experienced before--the dissociation between what you feel about your memory and what you know to be true about it. For centuries, it has inspired authors, artists and musicians, leaving psychologists struggling to keep up. The past 20 years though, has seen an explosion in research on d?j? vu and related experiences. From attempts to generate d?j? vu in the laboratory, to the study of patients who present with unusual forms of the experience, cognitive psychology has begun applying a range of both novel and established techniques to study these psychological experiences that have long captivated the public imagination.

D?j? vu and Other Dissociative States in Memory is an insightful resource for scholars and researchers of Psychology including Cognitive Psychology, and Neuroscience. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Memory.
