Reviews
"Beautifully articulated. . . . [ Memory Lane ] covers a lot of ground, from how we form memories to how delicate those memories really are." ---Laura Sanders, Science News, " An informative and accessible primer on how memory affects behavior. " ---Glenn C. Altschuler, Ph.D., Psychology Today, "[Greene and Murphy] skillfully unpack how the human mind achieves [the] miraculous balancing act of remembering and forgetting. . . . The authors remind us to accept our limitations and be humble about our capacities but celebrate all that our memory allows us to do. That is a message well worth remembering, long after the details of this absorbing book fade." ---Julian Baggini, Wall Street Journal, Memory Lane is a book that forces us to question everything we think we know-not just about history or crime, but about ourselves. It is a masterful, unsettling, and utterly necessary exploration of one of the most fundamental aspects of human cognition. And if, by the end, you find yourself doubting the accuracy of your own memories-well, that is precisely the point., [Greene and Murphy] make a persuasive argument that forgetting has its benefits, even as the fascinating case studies show the many downsides of memory's fallibility. Pop science readers will want to check out this splendid study.

Synopsis
An illuminating look at the adaptive nature of our memories--and how their flexibility and fallibility help us survive and thrive We tend to think of our memories as impressions of the past that remain fully intact, preserved somewhere inside our brains. In fact, we construct and reconstruct our memories every time we attempt to recall them. Memory Lane introduces readers to the cutting-edge science of human memory, revealing how our recollections of the past are constantly adapting and changing, and why a faulty memory isn't always a bad thing. Shedding light on what memory is and what it evolved to do, Ciara Greene and Gillian Murphy discuss the many benefits of our flexible yet fallible memory system, including helping us to maintain a coherent identity, sustain social bonds, and vividly imagine possible futures. But these flexible and easily distorted memories can also result in significant harm, leading us to provide erroneous eyewitness testimony or fall victim to fake news. Greene and Murphy explain why our flawed memories are not a failure of evolution but rather a byproduct of the perfectly imperfect way our minds have evolved to solve problems. They also grapple with important ethical questions surrounding the study and manipulation of memory. Blending engaging storytelling with the latest science, the authors demonstrate how our continuous reconstruction of the past makes us who we are, helps us to interpret our experiences, and explains why no two trips down memory lane are ever quite the same.

Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
