| Abstract
|
:
|
"In Context is Everything, Susan Engel explores how the place, company, purpose, and situation - the context of the recollection - profoundly affect the essence and experience of a memory. Blending vivid anecdotes with the startling findings of memory research, Engel examines the implications of context and purpose for memory, including one's motivation to remember and the strength or quality of the memory itself."--BOOK JACKET.
