- Summary:
- The question of whether memories can be lost, particularly as a result of trauma, and then 'recovered' through psychotherapy has polarised the field of memory research. This volume attempts to answer the question, bringing together leading memory researchers and clinicians to share their views. It offers a unique and timely summary of the theories of memory recovery, and how false memories may be created. Some of the first findings relating to the phenomenal characteristics of memory recovered is reported in detail, suggesting important avenues for new research.
