Reviews
'This highly stimulating book offers views from some of the best scientists in the field of verbal short-term memory - a topic with an impressive long-term pedigree which remains the focus of contemporary debate. The prose and academic content are readily accessible to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, while the new theoretical advances would interest active researchers.' -Robert H. Logie, Human Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Edinburgh, UK 'The relationship between short-term and long-term memory is fundamental in cognitive psychology. This book brings together the best recent research on the topic, not merely describing mutual influences between short-term and long-term memory but elucidating the underlying mechanisms. It is a timely and important collection.' -Jackie Andrade, Professor of Psychology, University of Plymouth, UK uth, UK, 'This highly stimulating book offers views from some of the best scientists in a field that is both well established and the focus of contemporary debate. The prose and academic content are readily accessible to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in Cognitive Psychology, while the new theoretical advances and their empirical underpinnings would interest active researchers. Theoretical tensions make clear why researchers remain excited by the conceptual utility (or otherwise) of verbal short-term memory - a topic with an impressive long-term pedigree.' - Robert H.
