For those who study memory, there is a nagging concern that memory studies are inherently backward-looking, and that memory itself hinders efforts to move forward. Unhinging memory from the past, this book brings together an interdisciplinary group of prominent scholars who bring the future into the study of memory.

Industry Reviews

'This important collection...reminds the field that the future is as important as the past and the present.' Criticism: A Quarterly for Literature and the Arts
