This work summarizes the current state of empirical and theoretical
work on impairments of short-term memory (often caused by damage in
the left cerebral hemisphere) and contains chapters from virtually
every scientist in Europe and North America working on the problem.
The chapters present evidence from both normal and brain-damaged
patients, providing a comprehensive view of the functional
characteristics of auditory-verbal short-term memory and its
neurobiological correlates. Two neuropsychological issues are
discussed in detail: the specific patterns of immediate memory
impairment resulting from brain damage, with reference to both
multi-store and the interactive-activation theoretical frameworks,
and the relation between verbal STM and sentence comprehension
disorders in patients with a defective immediate auditory memory,
an area of major controversy in recent years.
