Add to basketAn unforgettable book about memory. The Art of Memory: Remembering What Not to Forget provides an intriguing and understandable guide to memory that will be helpful to not only how memory works but also how to improve memory in practical, hopeful ways for lay as well as professional audiences. Dr. Beckwith tells you how to stop trying to remember and how to concretely plan on how you will remember. He draws upon more than 40 years experience as a clinical neuropsychologist, an educator, and an aging human being.
The Art of Memory: Remembering What Not to Forget is an essential guide to helping baby boomers and generation X-ers better their memory at home as well as at work or in school. Furthermore, Dr. Beckwith provides guidance on how aging effects memory and how memory disorders develop. Whether you are interested in improving your own memory or assessing and dealing with memory changes in aging parents, you will find compassionate, down to earth advice on what to do. He helps you sort through the false promises and hype. He helps provide you with a more hopeful outlook and effective strategies for managing memory. He provides honest, realistic, and useful information for everyone.
Dr. Beckwith shows you how he has applied what he has learned about memory to his own journey through aging and management of Parkinson's disease. He outlines how he has helped others (as well as himself) deal with issues like driving, handling finances, caregiving, legal directives, possession of weapons, emotions, exercise, diet, and staying engaged in life. The Art of Memory: Remembering What Not to Forget has been described by others as a friendly book that reads as if you are sitting and talking to him in person.
