An excellent guide to memory exploration

The entries in this helpful encyclopedia may be brief, but no one would call them incomplete. From Marsel Proust to the methods of assessing the memory disorders to the different kinds of amnesia, this is the book to consult first, whatever the memory-related issue is. It's written in a concise, clear, and assessible language. In fact, it's just as interesting as any fiction book, in my personal opinion. Definitely something to own.
