Sue Halpern
Sue Halpern's new book, CAN’T REMEMBER WHAT I FORGOT: The Good News From The Front Lines of Memory Research addresses concerns that affects us all: eighty-three percent of Americans are worried about not being able to remember each others’ names. Sixty percent worry about our tendency to misplace our car keys. Fifty-seven percent are disturbed when they can’t recall phone numbers a few minutes after hearing them. And almost everyone is worried that each new slip of memory means Alzheimer’s in the future.

CAN’T REMEMBER WHAT I FORGOT records Halpern’s travels through this fascinating and fast-changing world. She not only debunks some of the more common myths surrounding Alzheimer’s disease and normal memory loss, she also provides readers with information about important discoveries being made in these fields.

SUE HALPERN is a frequent contributor to such publications as the New Yorker, The New York Times, Conde Nast Traveler, Audubon and Good Housekeeping. She received a doctorate from Oxford University in 1985 and she taught Medical Ethics at Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons. A former Rhodes Scholar and Guggenheim fellow, Halpern is currently a scholar-in-residence at Middlebury College.
