Summary:"Time and Memory throws new light on fundamental aspects of human cognition and consciousness by bringing together psychological and philosophical approaches dealing with the connection between the capacity to represent and think about time, and the capacity to recollect the past. Fifteen specially written essays offer insights into current theories of memory processes and of the mechanisms and cognitive abilities underlying temporal judgements, and draw out key issues concerning the phenomenology and epistemology of memory and its role in our understanding of time." "Readership: Philosophers, cognitive psychologists, developmental psychologists, neuropsychologists, and cognitive scientists interested in mental representation and consciousness."--BOOK JACKET.
