The woman who can't forget: The extraordinary story of living with the most remarkable memory known to science

By Jill Price
Recommended by JoAnn

Since the age of 14 years, Jill had discovered she
had the rare ability to recall dates and events with
incredible accuracy. Her mind continuously plays
events, like a video camera. She was studied by
memory researchers for 6 years, as she was unique
at the time, and was written up in a scientific journal. The onslaught
of memories is both a curse and a blessing: the good memories are
comforting, but the bad ones are relived in detail.
