What is the name of that famous film you’ve watched so many times? These are common experiences, and as we grow older we tend to worry about these lapses. Is our memory failing? Is it dementia?   Douwe Draaisma, a renowned memory specialist, here focuses on memory in later life. Writing with eloquence and humor, he explains neurological phenomena without becoming lost in specialist terminology. His book is reminiscent of Oliver Sacks’s work, and not coincidentally this volume includes a long interview with Sacks, who speaks of his own memory changes as he entered his sixties. Draaisma moves smoothly from anecdote to research and back, weaving stories and science into a compelling description of the terrain of memory. He brings to light the “reminiscence effect,” just one of the unexpected pleasures of an aging memory.   The author writes reassuringly about forgetfulness and satisfyingly dismantles the stubborn myth that mental gymnastics can improve memory. He presents a convincing case in favor of the aging mind and urges us to value the nostalgia that survives as recollection, appreciate the intangible nature of past events, and take pleasure in the consolation of razor-sharp reminiscing.Reminiscing in old ageReminiscingAutobiographical memoryMemoryAge factorsReminiscing in old age.Reminiscing.Autobiographical memory.MemoryAge factors.155.67/1312Draaisma D608705Waters Liz1483113MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790433103321The nostalgia factory3701116UNINA01930nam0 2200445 i 450 PUV086844620251003044315.08808088111prbkIT2003-12493 20130827d2002 ||||0itac50 baitaitz01i xxxe z01nz01ncRDAcarrierBioinformaticaAnna TramontanoBolognaZanichelli2002VIII, 135 p.27 cm.Elaboratori elettroniciImpiego in genetica molecolareFIRCFIC141955IBIOLOGIAAPPLICAZIONI DELL'INFORMATICAFIRMILC122267I570.285SCIENZE DELLA VITA BIOLOGIA.
