False-memory Creation in Children and Adults

"This book is an attempt to cut through the undergrowth and get at the truth of the "recovered memory - false-memory creation" puzzle. The contributors - all prominent scholars studying the phenomenon in children or adults - review seminal research and provide the theory and critical interpretation necessary to translate theory into practice. Basic and applied memory researchers, clinical and social psychologists, and other professionals working within the helping and legal professions, will find this book a valuable addition to their libraries."--BOOK JACKET.

First sentence: The history of the interface between the psychology of childhood memories and legal cases is a notorious one.
