About this title

Synopsis

Are you worried that forgetfulness - having trouble finding your keys or recalling a familiar name-will become a more serious concern as you grow older? Understanding the memory process and learning a few simple This revised edition builds on the strengths of the original. It includes more practical advice and proven methods to improve memory for people of all ages. As Americans have become more active and health-conscious in recent years, attitudes about ageing have changed dramatically. But, surprisingly, many people still believe that serious memory loss is a natural part of the ageing process. "Improving Your Memory" aims to separate fact from fiction. It explains that, while memory changes do occur as people age, nearly everyone's memory skills can be improved with training and practice. With detailed information and practical strategies for coping with memory changes, this book is a useful resource for people of all ages.
