Abstract

Abstract ‘Working memory’ is one of the most important and exciting concepts in modern neuroscience, and rightly so. It refers to a cognitive faculty that is essential for mentation and complex behaviour. This faculty subserves much of our ability to interact with the world in a flexible and intelligent manner, and is essential for thought, planning, and language. For example, reading these lines and combining them into a meaningful message, requires working memory. It is doubtful whether without working memory there would have been a Homer, a Shakespeare, a Mozart, or a Newton, and an audience to appreciate them. A mind without working memory is thus expected to be a rather dull place.
