Summary
Hilde Ostby, Ylva Ostby: Adventures of memory - Secrets of memory and forgetting
In this book, neuropsychologist Ilva Estby and her sister, publicist and writer Hilde Estby, embark on an exciting adventure of memory, which extends from the discovery of memory at the level of neurons to modern mind reading using magnetic resonance machines. The book talks about memory techniques, false memory and forgetting, and the authors talk with a man who has completely lost his memory, with a young man who survived a terrorist attack on the island of Uteja, with ten divers, four chess grandmasters, with architects, mnemonists, taxi drivers, a criminal investigator, opera singer, author Lynn Ullman, Nobel Prize winner Edward Musser, climatologist Chris Field, blogger Idom Jackson, as well as their sister Tonya who is about to jump parachute to find out what happens when life flies before our eyes. Can we trust our memories? How does the memory of children differ from the memory of older people? How can we improve learning? How to live with traumatic memories, and how to live without memories? These are just some of the questions that the sisters, Hilde and Ilva Estby, explore.
The book Adventures of Memory is a unique and unforgettable story about memory, which shows us how the brain almost magically summons information and revives past moments, and how memories form the necessary foundation for our ability to imagine the future. In doing so, he reveals to us that memory is a very unreliable friend that follows its own rules, and that some memories are best forgotten. Ylva Østby was born in 1979 in Norway.
