The 5th edition of Human Memory provides a comprehensive overview of research and theory on human memory. Written in an engaging style, the book is divided into three sections, providing an accessible introduction to the application and assessment of memory theory.

Beginning with the history of memory, the first section explores basic methodology and neuroscience. The second section examines the key topics of memory such as the sensory memories, mechanisms of forgetting along with coverage of short-term, nondeclarative, episodic, and semantic memory processing. The third section focuses on specialized topics such as amnesia, memory for space and time, autobiographical memory, memory and reality, memory and the law, metamemory and formal models of memory. Instructors could pick which of these chapters best fit the goals of their course.
