Time Special Edition - The Science of Memory 2026English | 100 pages | True PDF | 45.9 MB
Our memory is amazing. We're able to store some 2.5 petabytes of data-about 300 million hours of television programming. But how do we make memories, and why do we forget? What's our memory like now, with our digital-era brains, and what can we do to build a better memory? All of these questions are answered in The Science of Memory, this new special edition from the editors of TIME. You'll learn about the time-bending magic of smell, the myths of aging, and why sleeping is key for memory. Activate your left brain, learning about the five key areas that aid recollection-the hippocampus, amygdala, prefrontal cortex, olfactory bulb, and hypothalamus-and your right brain, exploring why a whiff from a local restaurant may transport you back to your grandmother's dining room. You'll also learn about eight unexpected things that mess with your memory, such as a high-fat diet and a vitamin B12 deficiency, as well as six funny things you can do to remember, such as chewing gum or using a funny font (Comic Sans, anyone?). Unlock the full potential of your mind with TIME: The Science of Memory.
