| Summary |
Memory research has been so enamored of recent findings involving brain images and neurological underpinnings of transmitters, that it has seemingly moved away from understanding how who we are as individuals affects what we remember, why and how. Mary Howe brings memory back to the constructivist questions of how all the experiences of an individual up to the point of new memory input, help to determine what that person pays attention to, how that information is interpreted, and how all that ultimately affects what goes into memory and how it is stored. This also affects what can be recall |
