Sinossi

"Memory Formation Gaps" explores how our brains convert experiences into lasting memories, highlighting the gaps in our understanding of this complex process. The book delves into the mechanisms behind synaptic plasticity, the changes in brain circuitry crucial for memory, and examines the roles of brain regions like the hippocampus and amygdala. It questions why some memories fade while others endure, and how neural representations are stabilized over time.

The book progresses by first introducing the fundamentals of memory encoding, consolidation, and retrieval. Next, it explores synaptic plasticity at the molecular level, and the systems-level organization of memory across different brain regions. A key focus is on forgetting, examining theories of decay and interference.

The book concludes by discussing the clinical implications of memory research for treating memory disorders and cognitive decline. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the limitations of our current knowledge to stimulate new research directions, and improve therapies for neurodegenerative diseases.

This book uniquely emphasizes the unsolved mysteries within memory research, going beyond established facts to critically examine the boundaries of our understanding. It draws evidence from human studies, animal models, and neuroimaging data, connecting diverse fields like pharmacology and computer science. By acknowledging these gaps, "Memory Formation Gaps" promotes a nuanced view of memory, crucial for students, researchers, and clinicians in cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and biology.

The Digital Factory - The Human...

Moritz Altenried

The Digital Factory reveals the hidden human labor that supports today’s digital capitalism. 
  
The workers of today’s digital factory include those in Amazon warehouses, delivery drivers, Chinese gaming workers, Filipino content moderators, and rural American search engine optimizers. Repetitive yet stressful, boring yet often emotionally demanding, these jobs require little formal qualification, but can demand a large degree of skills and knowledge. This work is often hidden behind the supposed magic of algorithms and thought to be automated, but it is in fact highly dependent on human labor. 
  
The workers of today’s digital factory are not as far removed from a typical auto assembly line as we might think. Moritz Altenried takes us inside today’s digital factories, showing that they take very different forms, including gig economy platforms, video games, and Amazon warehouses. As Altenried shows, these digital factories often share surprising similarities with factories from the industrial age. As globalized capitalism and digital technology continue to transform labor around the world, Altenried offers a timely and poignant exploration of how these changes are restructuring the social division of labor and its geographies as well as the stratifications and lines of struggle.

Changing Our System Of Land...

Martin Adams

Most people aspire to become property owners and view real estate investments as an important way to build wealth and security. Mortgages are the norm. But does this system truly serve the well-being of either the economy or the individual? Martin Adams shares a view that profiting from land ownership causes social and cultural decline as well as environmental devastation. He introduces a radically new economic model that points to a more fair and abundant reality for everyone. He says this about mortgages, “As long as it remains an ongoing reality for the majority of human beings to have to pay other human beings for the land that they’re standing on, the economic system will forever cause wealth inequality at a core level.” Tune into this dynamic dialogue in order to fully understand his vision of a more equitable economic system that takes banks out of the picture and puts community in the center of economic of wealth and prosperity.
