Informazioni sull'autore
Charan Ranganath is the Director of the Memory and Plasticity Program and a Professor at the Center for Neuroscience at the University of California at Davis. He also the Director of the Dynamic Memory Lab, where he uses brain imaging techniques like functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), electroencephalography (EEG) and computational modelling to study the mechanisms in the brain that allow us to remember past events and discover how these mechanisms can go awry in people with memory disorders such as Alzheimer's Disease.
His work has been recognised with numerous awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship and the Leverhulme Professorship at the University of Cambridge. When Ranganath isn't studying the mind, he plays in post-punk bands. He lives in California.

DR RANGAN CHATTERJEE'A radically new and engaging explanation of how and why we remember.' MATTHEW WALKER'Life-changing.' SIDDHARTHA MUKHERJEE---Memory is far more than an archive of the past. This groundbreaking book by a pioneering Professor of Neuroscience and Psychology, Dr Charan Ranganath, reveals the powerful role memory plays in nearly every aspect of our lives.Combining fascinating tales of the peculiarities of memory as well as cutting-edge science, Dr Ranganath shows the surprising ways our brains record the past and how we use that information to understand who we are in the present, and to imagine and guide our futures. Memory shapes how we experience the world, and it does that in often invisible, active and sometimes destructive ways. Dr Ranganath argues that we can use this knowledge to make better use of our flawed memories, whether in daily tasks like finding our keys or dealing with memory loss as we age. What's more, when we work with the brain's ability to learn and reinterpret past events, we can shed our biases, learn faster and heal after grief or trauma. This is a vital, accessible guide to understanding memory's quirks - and its power. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.
