Review quote
"Zimmer and Cohen's lively volume provides an overview of current knowledge in the area, followed by chapters in which prominent researchers advocate their own views and comment on the views of others. The book does an excellent job of conveying the interest and excitement of research on this important topic."--Fergus Craik, Professor of Psychology, University of Toronto
"Memory for Action brings together the major researchers, findings, and ideas from an increasingly important area of memory research. A well-organized and highly informative volume that should interest all students of memory."-- Daniel L. Schacter, Professor and Chair of Psychology, Harvard University
