The Cognitive Neuroscience of Working Memory

It Is Only Relatively Recently That It Has Been Possible To Study The Neural Processes That Might Underlie Working Memory, Leading To A Proliferation Of Research In This Domain. This Volume Brings Together Leading Researchers From Around The World To Summarise Current Knowledge Of This Field.
