Abstract

A review is presented on the neuropsychological bases of memory and oblivion: registration, consolidation, storage and evocation and on amnesia models and their etiologies. The different levels of Information processing and of memory types are analyzed. Particular attention is given to clinical dissociations since they have revealed what is known about memory and its relation to the brain. Memory anatomy has been enriched by the study of selective losses of memory, because of their relationship to the alteration of specific brain structures.
