Beschreibung
A not very extensive study by a prominent Russian psychologist is an extraordinary testament to his nearly thirty years of research on a man whose memory had no clear boundaries, not only in terms of its extent but also regarding the permanence of recall. Luria, thanks to his intimate knowledge of a man endowed with an extraordinary memory, with whom he conducted numerous interviews and performed many tests, describes in rich detail not only the obvious advantages of this amazing memory but also its surprising weaknesses. Even with the help of verbatim transcripts of his statements, we can glimpse into the mind of a person unable to forget and observe how his extraordinary memory manifested in other aspects of his personality, in his thinking, imagination, and behavior, how it influenced his inner world and his contact with the environment. The book is considered a classic work of world literature on human memory and has lost none of its fascinating intensity over the years.
