This volume offers a collection of the theoretical perspectives that represent the cutting edge of theorising in the area of short-term memory. The contributors, all with long-standing
international reputations in this area, have provided overviews of models of short-term memory that are driving current research and thinking in the area, with particular emphasis placed on the
detailed description of the functioning of the models.
This book will appeal to active researchers in the area of memory, to graduate students, and to academics who wish to update their knowledge of this highly active and fast-developing area of
research and theory. Although the book is primarily designed for this advanced study market, the lucid style adopted by the contributors in providing overviews of their models of short-term
memory will also appeal to final-year undergraduate students studying in this area.
