Memory is a cognitive process that has been addressed widely in scientific study. In fact, the number of original research articles that have attempted to characterise memory from different approaches is so vast that integrating the knowledge derived from this extensive body of scientific research makes formal compilations, such as the one offered to the reader in this book, necessary. Psychobiological Principles of the Memory Process is a particularly useful book by virtue of the fact that it addresses genetic, molecular, cellular, and systematic aspects related to the organisation and performance of memory, under both normal conditions and those associated with pathology, and because it examines clinical and experimental approaches throughout development. The 7 chapters that make up the book were written with a homogeneous structure and in clear, concise scientific language that is adequate for specialists and science students, but is also accessible to non-specialised, or amateur, neuroscience readers.

Dr. Ignacio González Burgos is Biologist, Master in Sciences in Cell Biology, and PhD in Biomedical Sciences. He is Senior Researcher and Chief of the Neuroscience Division at the Western Biomedical Research Center of the Mexican Institute of Social Security, in Guadalajara, Jalisco, México. Dr. González-Burgos has published more than 50 original articles and some book chapters, all of these related to the neurochemical and hormonal events involved in the modulation of the synaptic plasticity that underlie the brain organization and behavioral expression of learning and memory. Also, he has been reviewer of papers submitted to publication in some dozens of prestigious international Journals devoted to the study of neurosciences. Dr. González-Burgos is a regular member of the Sociedad Mexicana de Ciencias Fisiológicas, the Academia Mexicana de Ciencias, the Society for Neuroscience, the International Brain Research Organization, the Internacional Society for Developmental Neuroscience, the International Behavioral Neuroscience Society, and the Cajal Club.
