| Summary |
When a person recovers a memory of an event from their past for which they claim little or no previous awareness, how reliable is that memory? In this refreshing new approach to the problem, Graham Davies and Tim Dalgleish have assembled leading figures from both sides of the debate to provide a balanced overview of the evidence from theoretical and clinical psychologists. |
