Memories come in many different forms and vary substantially in strength; some, such as where you put your car keys, can be brief, while others remain in the mind forever. James McGaugh, a leading neurobiologist, provides an accessible and thought-provoking look at how we remember and why we forget. Beginning with the first scientific studies of learning and ending with the latest cutting-edge research, he explores how memories are made and preserved; why some experiences fade and disappear with time; how stress hormones effect the consolidation of memory; whether drugs would improve our ability to learn; and what studies of extraordinary memories and disorders tell us about the workings of the brain systems involved in memory formation.

As I summarize the poems in this book, Im amused as to the wonders of Gods creation. How he formed and placed everything in its particular environment. The galaxies with all of the orbits in their respective places; never colliding with each other. The forestry with a vast variety of plants and animal life, and each one offering their services intertwined. Plants receiving nutrients from the animals through the use of manure for fertilizer. Animals in return getting oxygen and shade to cover them from the suns rays; therefore gaining strength and growth. Flowers in kaleidoscope of colors, shapes, and sizes are such a sight to behold. The diverse scents with their aromas relax you. Human beings put it all together with their caring love and attention; showing kindness to the animals, plants, and to each others shows us that the love God placed in the very center of our spirits and souls is why living makes it all to be.
