"The powerful flexibility of our memories shines through brightly in this gem of a book by two brilliant memory scientists. For Greene and Murphy, memory is like a Lego tower--leaving out elements that really did happen and adding in new elements that didn't--and is something to celebrate despite the pitfalls and perils that occasional misremembering causes. Their superb storytelling makes the book a joy to read." --Elizabeth F. Loftus, University of California, Irvine "Memory is the foundation for our sense of self and related psychological functions, but it is also prone to various kinds of errors and distortions. In Memory Lane , Ciara Greene and Gillian Murphy provide an engaging and insightful discussion of research from the lab and everyday life that illuminates the surprising ways in which memory works and explains why it can sometimes get us into trouble. I highly recommend this entertaining and informative book." -- Daniel L.

Schacter, author of The Seven Sins of Memory "Greene and Murphy not only provide a general overview of memory and its limitations, but also address many of the changes in technology and social media that we have experienced in recent years, which have raised important questions about misinformation, disinformation, and the factors that increase susceptibility to fake news. A unique, timely, and significant contribution." --Brice Alan Kuhl, University of Oregon "An engaging, accessible, and novel take on the normal and inevitable fallibility of human conscious memory." --Jonathan Lee, University of Birmingham.
