The Handbook of Autobiographical Memory: From Basic to Applied Perspectives offers a comprehensive view on autobiographical memory with a multidisciplinary approach. This volume explores contemporary advances in understanding both the cognitive and neural processes, with historical context of autobiographical memory theory and assessment. The book further synthesizes insights from cognitive, developmental, and social aspects of autobiographical functioning as well as understanding departures from the norm in terms of autobiographical memory dysfunction. A section on applications will equip readers with essential information regarding the assessment and detection of autobiographical memory dysfunction in neurological and psychiatric populations, how such processes evolve over the lifespan, and how deviations from healthy memory function can be supported through novel rehabilitation practices.
