How is technology changing the way people remember? This book
explores the interplay of memory stored in the brain (internal
memory) and outside of the brain (external memory), providing a
thorough interdisciplinary review of the current literature,
including relevant theoretical frameworks from across a variety of
disciplines in the sciences, arts, and humanities. It also presents
the findings of a rich and novel empirical data set, based on a
comprehensive survey on the shifting interplay of internal and
external memory in the 21st century. Results reveal a growing
symbiosis between the two forms of memory in our everyday lives.
The book presents a new theoretical framework for understanding the
interplay of internal and external memory, and their complementary
strengths. It concludes with a guide to important dimensions,
questions, and methods for future research. Memory and Technology
will be of interest to researchers, professors, and students across
the disciplines of psychology, philosophy, library and information
science, human factors, media and cultural studies, anthropology
and archaeology, photography, and cognitive rehabilitation, as well
as anyone interested in how technology is affecting human memory.
_____ "This is a novel book, with interesting and valuable data on
an important, meaningful topic, as well as a gathering of
multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary ideas...The research is
accurately represented and inclusive. As a teaching tool, I can
envision graduate seminars in different disciplines drawing on the
material as the basis for teaching and discussions." Dr. Linda A.
Henkel, Fairfield University "This book documents the achievements
of a vibrant scientific project - you feel the enthusiasm of the
authors for their research. The organization of the manuscript
introduces the reader into a comparatively new field the same way
as pioneering authors have approached it." Prof. Dr. Wolfgang
Schoenpflug, Freie Universitat Berlin
