Recenzii
'Walter Glannon achieves a rare balance: the book is clear and detailed about the neuroscience of memory and is also insightful about the legal and ethical challenges that scientific advances entail. This is a very timely and useful book.' Nick Davis, Manchester Metropolitan University
'Memory is central to who we are and how we act. Provoking and thoughtful, The Neuroethics of Memory explores the implications of the new technologies that could alter memory and may fundamentally change who we are.' Andrew Davidson, Medical Director, Melbourne Children's Trials Centre, Australia
'The Neuroethics of Memory provides an insightful and well-argued analysis of the implications of memory research for ethical issues that arise in legal and medical arenas. Drawing on literature from neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy, Walter Glannon gracefully illuminates some of the most difficult issues currently facing science and society.' Daniel L. Schacter, William R. Kenan, Jr Professor of Psychology, Harvard University
'Walter Glannon has built a fascinating and wide-ranging account of memory. By channeling neurobiology, psychology, law, history, and philosophy, this book summarizes how memory defines who we are and forms the basis of our society. The result is a tour de force of neuroethics at its comprehensive best.' Julian Savulescu, Director of Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics, University of Oxford
'As a synthesis and critical analysis of current work in several disciplines, this book offers an unparalleled vision of how neuroethics scholarship on memory can be interdisciplinary, rigorous, forward-looking, and compelling.' Eric Racine, Neuroethics
'For its clear style and its rigorous and sound analytical arguments, The Neuroethics of Memory is a candidate to become an indispensable companion for any research on the ethics of memory and its manipulation.' Andrea Lavazza, Cambridge Quarterly of Healthcare Ethics
