The Nostalgia Factory Memory, Time and Ageing

When we can't call to mind the name of someone we've known for years, or walk into a room and forget what we came for, we start worrying. Are these lapses just "senior moments," or something serious like dementia? In this book, a renowned specialist explores the topic of memory in later life-not only the problems but the surprisingly unexpected pleasures it can offer, such as the "reminiscence effect."
Avoiding jargon, Douwe Draaisma explains neurological phenomena and also includes a long interview with Oliver Sacks, who speaks of his own memory changes as he entered his sixties. Draaisma moves smoothly from anecdote to research and back, weaving stories and science into a compelling description of the terrain of memory and forgetfulness, dismantling myths and helping us to value the abilities of the aging mind.
"For readers, the most welcome aspect of this book may be his heartening examples of the wisdom that comes with old age."-The Washington Post
