Assembled by the prominent psychologists Daniel Schacter and Endel
Tulving, the contributions in Memory Systems 1994 focus
on the nature and number of memory systems in humans and animals.
Together they present ideas from cognitive psychology,
neuropsychology, and neuroscience in a review of intriguing
experimental outcomes at the cutting edge of this domain, grappling,
often passionately, with the behavioral and neuroanatomical
composition of memory systems and subsystems. Chapters are revised
versions of contributions that appeared in a special issue of the
Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience. This book includes an integrated
discussion of and cross-commentary on the earlier contributions.
