Pieces of Light: The New Science of Memory by Charles Fernyhough

2.0

A lot of the real-life examples that the author used from his life were not compelling, especially the multiple recountings of his attempts to navigate through cities he once knew. These were often long drawn-out multi-page examples. He also became too technical at times. Some of the case studies toward the end of the book were more interesting, but even those he tended to become very detailed and lengthy. Editing out the unnecessary and uninteresting parts would have cut the book in half.
