Set during the US occupation following World War II, this is a novel of conflict - between Western and Eastern traditions, between a husband and his wife, between ideals and reality. At the opening of the book, Miwa Shunsuke and his wife are trapped in a strained marriage, subtly attacking one another in a manner similar to that of the characters in "Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"

Until recently, the vast majority of memory research used only university students and other young adults as subjects. Although such research successfully introduced new methodologies and theoretical concepts, it created a bias in our understanding of the lifespan development of memory. This book signals a departure from young-adult-centered research. It views the lifespan development of memory as a continuous process of growth and loss, where each phase of development raises unique questions favoring distinct research methods and theoretical approaches.

This book presents cutting-edge research in perception, memory, and aging, with a focus on dynamic cognitive processes: interactive and constructive processes in such phenomena as perception and memory, interaction between processes recruited for perception and memory, activation and inhibition, influence of subconscious processes on perception and memory, and dynamic cognitive processes involved in memory and aging. The chapters cover many of the current "hot” topics in cognitive psychology and memory, including perceptual organization, breakdown of perception due to various disorders, neur
