Sidtis and Nunzio Pomara -- Using the background to remember the foreground : the role of contextual information in memory / Gerasimos Markopoulos -- Can survival processing help to preserve our memories? / Daniel P.A. Clark -- The effects of ageing and exercise on recollection and familiarity based memory processes / Richard J. Tunney, Harriet A. Allen, Charlotte Bonardi and Holly Blake -- Memory training for older adults : a review with recommendations for clinicians / Robin L. West and Carla M.

An increase in average life expectancy has given rise to a number of pressing health challenges for the 21st century. Age-related memory loss, whether due to a neurodegenerative condition such as Alzheimer's disease, or as a product of the normal process of aging, is perhaps the most significant of the health problems of old age presently confronting our society. 'The Preservation of Memory' explores non-invasive, empirically sound strategies that can be implemented to ensure long-lasting and effective retention of information.
