Brain Organization and Memory: Cells, Systems, and Circuits

by James L. McGaugh (Editor), Norman M. Weinberger (Editor), Gary Lynch (Editor)

This edited volume summarizes recent findings of leading researchers investigating the brain systems that underlie memory. The book reviews recent progress in understanding forms of memory in animals and humans and the interaction of cortical and subcortical systems in the regulation of
memory. Special emphasis is given to the development of neural network models that attempt to link cells to systems in the representation of memory. The book will be an invaluable source for cognitive psychologists, neuroscientists, and students interested in this active and exciting area of
research.
