Basic Medicine:The Nature of Things——Memory: the Past Imperfect
Momory does not work like a video tape recorder, you don't just see an event, record it, and play it back the way a tape recorder would. The processes are much more complex than that. And it actually involves more of a reconstructive activity than a playback activity. It's clear that human memory is not like any of the technologies we compare to, it's a far more complext system with extraordinary capacities and some unexpected foibles.
