  This guidebook explains the human system for classifying, storing and retrieving information that exceeds the best computer in capacity, flexibility and speed. Yet the same system is so limited and unreliable that it cannot consistently remember a nine-figure telephone number long enough to dial it. This book explains how memory works, illustrating the central and important characteristics of human memory and its more intriguing byways. It also offers advice on how to sustain and improve one's capacity for memory. Professor Alan Baddeley is the author of The Psychology of Memory and Human Memory: Theory and Practice .
