Language: English
First Edition
hardcover. Dust Jacket Condition: DJ VG: clean, unclipped. first edition. 8vo 253pp. from front flap: ".And for more than forty years now, [Henry] has been a prisoner of the immediate present. Each new moment has no connection to what happened a minute or an hour or a week or a year before. He is perpetually waking from a dream, suspended in uncertainty about what day it is and what lies ahead. For decades Henry's guardians at M.I.T.'s clinical research center have shielded him, restricting access to academic researchers. Now, in Memory's Ghost, Philip J. Hilts, one of a relatively small number of people who have spent extended time with Henry, tells Henry's remarkable story. But Henry's story is only part of Memory's Ghost. On a quest for understanding the mysterious power of memory, Hilts takes the reader on a fascinating trip down Lethe, the river of forgetfulness, in search of Mnemosyne, the goddess of mind and imagination." #02463. Book VG: mild shelf wear, mild toning/offset to endpapers, text unmarked, binding tight.

hardcover. Condition: Very Good in Dustjacket. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. New York. 1995. Simon & Schuster. 1st Printing. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0684803569. 256 pages. hardcover. keywords: Memory Science Psychology. DESCRIPTION - In 1953, experimental brain surgery was performed on a young man named Henry M. It was a time when lobotomies were in fashion, and Henry's doctors believed that his epilepsy could be cured by a radical operation. Two holes were drilled into Henry's skull above his eyes and through a silver straw the hippocampus - a grayish-pink organ the size and shape of a fist - was sucked out from deep within Henry's brain. When Henry recovered, it was clear that something had gone terribly wrong. He could talk and read and write. But when asked where he was, or who the people were at his bedside, he did not know. Nurses could speak to him and return a moment later, only to find he had no memory of them. For decades Henry's guardians at M.I.T.'s clinical research center have shielded him, restricting access to academic researchers. Now, in Memory's Ghost, Philip J. Hilts, one of a relatively small number of people who have spent extended time with Henry, tells Henry's remarkable story. But Henry's story is only part of Memory's Ghost. Memory's Ghost examines as well how great thinkers have understood memory, from Plato and St. Augustine to Proust and William James. Memory's Ghost explains how memory works and how it doesn't work, how mnemonic devices work, where memory functions are physically located in brain regions, and how the hippocampus - the part of the brain that Henry M. lost - organizes information into memory. Part poetic reflection and philosophical meditation, part popular science and investigative journalism, Memory's Ghost is an intriguing exploration of the mysteries of the mind and of a man whose memory was stolen from him. inventory #21403.
