Suggested Readings

Baddeley, A. (1990). Human memory. Boston: Allyn & Bacon. Though published several years ago, this remains one of the best textbooks on memory.

Baddeley, A. (1994). Your memory: A user’s guide. New York: Penguin Books. Written for a nontechnical audience by one of the area’s most respected scientists, this book is easily the best of its kind.

Hilts, P. (1995). Memory’s ghost: The nature of memory and the strange tale of Mr. M. New York: Simon & Schuster. A wonderful, personal account of “Henry M.,” known to most students of psychology as “H. M.”

Loftus, E. F., & Ketchum, K. (1994). The myth of repressed memory: False memories and allegations of sexual abuse. New York: St. Martin’s Press. Cowritten by one of this textbook’s authors, this book tackles the controversial topic of repressed and recovered memory.

Luria, A. R. (1987/1968). The mind of a mnemonist: A little book about a vast memory. Cambridge, MA: Harvard. As the title suggests, this brief book described “S.,” the Russian mnemonist with remarkable memory skills. It was written by the legendary neurologist Alexander Luria.

Neisser, U. (1981). Memory observed: Remembering in natural contexts. San Francisco: Freeman. A classic collection of essays, edited by Ulric Neisser, that are just as fascinating and thought- provoking as when they were first issued.
