From his intimate knowledge of S., the mnemonist, gained from conversations and testing over a period of almost thirty years, Professor Luria is able to reveal in rich detail not only the obvious strengths of S.’s astonishing memory but also his surprising weaknesses: his crippling inability to forget, his pattern of reacting passively to life, and his uniquely handicapped personality.\n\nWritten by Alexander Romanovich Luria (1902–1977) – often is credited as a father of modern neuropsychology – the book was translated to the English by Lynn Solotaroff. Shown here is the jacket of the first English edition, published by Basic Books with a foreword by Jerome S. Bruner. Loretta Li’s design uses **Benguiat Montage Extra Condensed** and **Copperplate Gothic Extended**.\n\n\n\n\n_**Source: www.ebay.com **North Books Used & Rare.
