Sinopsis
How we remember and what we forget shapes our sense of self
This book explores how memory works, why memories fade, and how dreams reveal hidden mental processes. Drawing on vivid cases and classic ideas, it examines how images, sensations, and meanings interact to form recall, and why certain thoughts slip away while others endure.
From everyday perception to the deeper workings of dreams, the text shows how memory is built, stored, and sometimes distorted. It offers clear explanations of concepts like imagery, condensation, and the way unconscious factors influence what we remember. Readers will see how attention, postures, and even creative thinking play a role in what stays with us and what does not.
- Plain explanations of memory, forgetting, and the role of dreams in remembering.
- How imagery and meaning interact to shape recall and learning.
- Examples of how psychological theories explain everyday memory moments.
- Connections between perception, attention, and long‑term memory that affect practice and understanding.
Ideal for readers curious about why memories last, what makes us forget, and how dreams illuminate mental processes.

Excerpt from Remembering and Forgetting
The chapters in this book were drafted at different times between 1913 and 1921, though they have all been recently revised, and most of them have received considerable additions. They are not arranged in strict logical sequence; indeed, any appearance of complete ness in a treatise upon such a vast subject would be illusory. Chapters i. To ix., however, are all closely connected, and may best be read in that order. Chap ters x. To xiii. Form an appendix illustrating many principles laid down in the main part of the book.

Excerpt from Remembering and Forgetting
Whatever there may be of definiteness in the structure of this book is due to the circumstances under which its first draft was made. It was necessary to compress into a few lectures enough information about ordinary remembering and forgetting to enable officers of the R.A.M.C. to estimate the abnormality of these functions in their patients. It might have been better if the book had appeared in that shape; but more than three years have now passed, and the temptation to add to these lectures as new information has arrived from time to time has been irresistible. These additions have naturally obscured the original outlines of the book. At first, however, it was the medical man to whom these chapters were addressed, and if they now help him in any way this must be accredited to the Medical Research Council, whose grant facilitated the giving of these lectures at the Maghull Military Hospital, near Liverpool, and to the encouragement of its late commanding officer, Dr. R. G. Rows.
In thanking those friends who have helped me, I wish to acknowledge first my great debt of gratitude to the late Dr. W. H. R. Rivers, the loss of whom to psychology is incalculable.
