The Memory Illusion

In The Memory Illusion, forensic psychologist Dr. Julia Shaw explores the fascinating and sometimes unsettling ways in which our memories can deceive us, revealing how easily we can be misled, manipulated, or even inadvertently fabricate false recollections. Drawing on the latest research, she examines how memories can be influenced by outside forces, with implications for everything from everyday life to criminal justice. The book offers insights into how understanding our brain's fallibility can help us improve our memory and gain a deeper understanding of ourselves.
