Neural memory remains largely a mystery despite all the attention it has received. Prompted by this observation, Joaquin M. Fuster presents the insights of more than three decades of empirical research on the neural processes by which memory is formed, stored and retrieved. This text focuses on the neocortex, where individual memory is deposited and represented, and offers a new taxonomy of memory that should accommodate the rapidly changing nature of the field and the various...
