This fully revised and updated third edition of the highly acclaimed Memory in the Real World includes recent research in all areas of everyday memory. Distinguished researchers have contributed new and updated material in their own areas of expertise. The controversy about the value of naturalistic research, as opposed to traditional laboratory methods, is outlined, and the two approaches are seen to have converged and become complementary rather than antagonistic. The editors bring together studies on many different topics, such as memory for plans and actions, for names and faces, for routes and maps, life experiences and flashbulb memory, and eyewitness memory. Emphasis is also given to the role of memory in consciousness and metacognition. New topics covered in this edition include life span development of memory, collaborative remembering, deja-vu and memory dysfunction in the real world. Memory in the Real World will be of continuing appeal to students and researchers in the area.

"Your Poor Memory is Costing You Money..." Has simple forgetfulness ever cost you a client, a great opportunity, or even respect? It can be embarrassing to forget things. It can make you look stupid in front of your peers and it can make you look incompetent in front of employers.

But now there's a way for you to end your humiliation, earn respect, and gain the mental power you wish you had.
