Contents:

Is there a place for mnemonics in modern psychology? -- General considerations in selecting mnemonics -- Basic cognitive and mnemonic processes -- Formal mnemonic systems -- Organizational mnemonics -- Experts and professional mnemonists -- Mnemonics returns to education -- Mnemonics in cognitive rehabilitation -- So, is there a place for mnemonics in contemporary psychology?

Summary: "This book bridges the gap between basic memory research and mnemonic applications through a careful analysis of the processes that underlie effective memory aids. The book traces the history of mnemonics, examines popular techniques, and discusses the current relevance of mnemonics to both psychological researchers and those seeking to improve their memory. Using a unique approach (termed "mnemonology"), the authors seek not necessarily to promote specific mnemonic techniques, but to provide information which will allow one to improve memory by creating their own mnemonics."--Provided by publisher.
