{"product_id":"the-confabulating-mind-armin-schnider-9780198789680","title":"The Confabulating Mind: How the Brain Creates Reality","description":"Confabulations are recitations of events and experiences that never happened, ranging from incorrect responses to questions to a blatant confusion of reality. The Confabulating Mind provides the most up-to-date account of the causes, anatomical basis, and mechanisms of the phenomenon of false memories. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this significant update on the first edition, the author analyses new and diverse examples of striking clinical cases, discusses children's sense of reality, and incorporates his research on a distinct form of confabulation that is characterized by a confusion of reality. The book also examines other forms such as deja-vu, paramnesic misidentification, and anosognosia; looks at false memories as they occur in healthy people; and considers how the brain uses orbitofrontal reality filtering to create reality. By re-tracing the history of confabulations and integrating the latest insights into the mechanisms of confabulations, it summarises current interpretations of confabulations before making recommendations for future study. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book is important reading for neurologists, psychiatrists, neuropsychologists, cognitive neuroscientists, and other scientists and clinicians interested in the organization of memory and thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Armin Schnider\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198789688\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198789680\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/26\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.80d","brand":"Armin Schnider","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43994817822975,"sku":"9780198789680","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3814d22f-237c-40a8-9547-7e2d3f757707.jpg?v=1683332354","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-confabulating-mind-armin-schnider-9780198789680","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
