In this book, Dr. Baddeley promotes the concept of working memory as a replacement for the older short-term memory. He proposes a specific model involving a central executive controller and a number of 'slave' systems. He explores two of these hypothetical slave systems, and also applies the concept of working memory to the study of reading.
