Introduction The concept of working memory is very new. It was first used by Miller in 1960 and it referred to memory used to plan and carry out behavior. From that time on it has been researched and explored numerously - many theories have come to life, some of them very different, some different only in naming. In my paper I would like to compare two models that I personally have found most interesting - the multi-component model of working memory created by Baddeley and Hitch (1974) and Baddeley
False memories are events recalled by a witness that did not actually happen. There is research which suggests that up to 20% of those studied maintain a record of detailed personal memories that are completely false (Mazzoni, Scoboria, and Harvey, 2010). As reported in Alexander (2013), false memories can even be found in those with an otherwise excellent recall: Some people have an amazing ability to recall specific events, like exactly what happened on a particular day decades ago. For example

times, the concept of memory has been looked upon as an important element in humans. In those centuries, it was attributed to higher beings, such as the ancient Greeks explaining the idea with their goddess, Mnemosyne, with a part of her very name, mneme, meaning memory in the language.

The connection between memory and emotions have
(pyramidal cells), that are type of neuron found in hippocampus (Cajal., 1894). Since then, studies on pyramidal neurons have given attention on subject matter ranging from neuroplasicity to memory and cognition. The hippocampus is involved in multifaceted processes in memory process which includes forming, organizing and storing memories. It also enables us to convert the substance of working memory and new information detained briefly in the prefrontal cortex into long-term form for storage
Chapter 1 : Introduction Cities in developing countries face similar challenges in attempting to cope with the phenomenon of rapid urbanisation. Their ability to cope with such challenges is largely contingent upon their limited resources and the institutional framework in which they operate. Social organisations, cultures, administrative traditions, planning conventions and political dynamics vary considerably from city to city, and country to country. When we talk about Egypt considering the rapid

However, if we look at nostalgia as a phenomenon which is not that much about memory but about loss, its relationship to history seems less
