Me and My Memory: Why We Forget Some Things and Remember Others (Second Edition) (All about Me)

The first book in Hoopoe's "All About Me" series, Me and My Memory explores the mystery of our minds and memories: How do we remember, and how do we forget? In a clear and engaging way, it summarizes everything that scientists and researchers know about the topic, and also explores questions that have yet to be answered.

Throughout the book, engaging activities that enhance these strategies are described. Me and My Memory was written by high-school teacher Robert Guarino, who presents fundamental information in clear and thoughtful text that teens can understand and relate to. This new edition of Me and My Memory has been revised to incorporate the latest research findings and meet the American Psychological Association's National Standards for Psychology at the high-school level, the College Board AP Psychol
