I've spent much of today reading some articles on thought and memory. I learned my memory vocabulary from Kenneth Higby's invaluable classic Your Memory: How It Works and How to Improve It, which I've found quite helpful. This morning I read an article in Wired (oops, also posted earlier today that lays out much of the actual neuroscience behind memory storage and retrieval. Reading it spurred me to seek out Elizabeth Loftus' SciAm article about her work with implanting false memories. In unrelated surfing I then found myself reading about thought, memory and habit in the context of consumer analysis. I've found it all quite fascinating and thought I'd share.
