More than half of Americans have a ""visual"" memory, focusing easily on objects, places, and faces, while others are better at remembering sounds and words. Once thought to involve a simple storage and retrieval of information, memory is now known to be an incredibly complex process, as are the ways in which diseases and disorders can cause its failure. The Encyclopedia of Memory and Memory Disorders, Second Edition presents vital, up-to-date information on every facet of this crucial health issue. Revised and updated, the second edition includes more than 700 entries describing: Alzheimer's disease; Football and memory loss; Huffing; Mad cow disease; Memory in infancy; Norepinephrine; ""Punch drunk"" syndrome; Social memory; Vitamins and memory. New and expanded coverage includes: Clinical terms; Key researchers; Major theories; Possible causes of memory-related disorders; Available treatments; Symptoms of memory disorders.
