Instead, many\u003cbr\u003edimensions have been taken to be part of the structure of memory. Of these, space and time stand out: \u003cbr\u003eall personal experience can in principle be indexed by where and when specific events occurred, and\u003cbr\u003eboth scientific evidence and common sense suggest that the way we relate different events together in\u003cbr\u003ememory draws on these dimensions. For instance, to remember what one ate for lunch last Thursday, \u003cbr\u003eone might call up a memory of where one was, or retrace the events of the day leading up to lunch. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSome nuts-and-bolts questions arise immediately, starting with whether the spatial or the temporal\u003cbr\u003edimension is primary. Or rather, do we rely on both equally? Do we represent them separately or\u003cbr\u003ejointly? But there are bigger questions with broad implications: What makes space and time such central\u003cbr\u003estructures in our cognitive world, and what is the conceptual nature of these structures? These\u003cbr\u003equestions are deeply related to one another, though they span multiple fields and methodologies, \u003cbr\u003etouching on philosophy, psychology and neuroscience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eSpace, Time, and Memory\u003c\/em\u003e explores three key questions: first, the role of space and time as structures that organize memory, second, theories of the nature of memory itself that draw on space and time, and finally applications of questions about the structure of memory to debates about perception, decision-making, and artifical intelligence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lynn Nadel, Sara Aronowitz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0192882546\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780192882547\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/28\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Lynn Nadel","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46867251200255,"sku":"9780192882547","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d616a552-085d-4b15-ab5d-634cc4dcbf32.jpg?v=1747454287","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/space-time-and-memory-lynn-nadel-9780192882547","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
