Memory is an astounding psychological trick. Not only are we capable of recalling facts, we are able mentally to transport ourselves to a different place in time, conjuring an image of the past in an instant. For this ebook, we have assembled a cast of experts to explore the power of memory. We ask how reliable our recollections of the past are and how the stories of ourselves are shaped by those around us. We also dispel some common myths surrounding memory and look at ways in which we can maximise our memory function.
