Michael Shawn Malone's book "The Epic Story of Human Memory"

WONDERZINE talks about interesting, useful, beautiful, strange or, as in this case, clever things that you want to buy immediately.

Memory is dichotomous: on the one hand, we can operate and make decisions on the basis of only the information that we have chosen to remember, on the other hand, we remember something in the process of activity. Anyway, the memory determines the personality, it is interesting to study it, and "The Guardian of All Things: The Epic Story of Human Memory" by Michael Shaun Malone is one of the books suitable for him. The author - a writer, investor and entrepreneur - explores the functional organization of memory: short-term, or working, with its four zones responsible for diverse information processing, and long-term - at the neural level. In addition, Malone talks about implicit memory (unconscious recording of experience) and explicit (conscious) memory; concerns emotional when events are ordered based on the feelings they cause. And this all fits into the framework of the study of the multi-thousand-year history of memory and the tools of its development (cave paintings) or deterioration (the Internet).
