Just not. What I was looking for
I am getting older and thought this would give me give information how to cope with my seemingly not able to remember words during a conversation...or when I go into a room to get something I have forgotten.
Totally disappointed it may have told me , but the book was so boring it was really hard to stay with it.

Good book, full of info on how memory works. Emphasis is on aging, but all ages can benefit.
