A conversation with Daniel Schacter about memory
Keywords:
A conversation with Daniel Schacter, Chairman of the department of psychology at Harvard University, about his book "The Seven Sins of Memory", which establishes a framework with which to explain the reasons behind the most common memory lapses.

























Amazingly, Mr. Rose, whom I've watched for years, despite the stated intention to review all 7 "sins," only allows Dr. Schacter to present the first two. Mr. Rose's questioning seems almost random, as though he's forgotten his own plan for the interview. So, as a viewer, I don't get basic foundation of Dr. Schacter's book and work on memory.
