This cutting-edge book offers a theoretical account of the
evolution of multiple memory systems of the brain. The authors
conceptualize these memory systems from both behavioural and
neurobiological perspectives, guided by three related principles.
First, that our understanding of a wide range of memory phenomena
can be advanced by breaking down memory into multiple forms with
different operating characteristics. Second, that different forms
of memory representation are supported by distinct brain pathways
with circuitry and neural coding properties. Third, that the
contributions of different brain systems can be compared and
contrasted by distinguishing between dedicated (or specific) and
elaborate (or general) memory systems. A primary goal of this work
is to relate the neurobiological properties of dedicated and
elaborate systems to their neuropsychological counterparts, and in
so doing, account for the phenomenology of memory, from
conditioning to conscious recollection.
