How to Change a Memory
One Neuroscientist's Quest to Alter the Past
Book • 2025
In 'How to Change a Memory,' Steve Ramirez combines memoir and cutting-edge neuroscience to reveal how memories are not fixed but can be altered, erased, or even created.
Drawing on his own experiences and research, Ramirez explains how memory manipulation could revolutionize treatments for PTSD, anxiety, Alzheimer's, addiction, and other conditions.
He also reflects on the ethical implications of changing memories and the profound impact this technology could have on our sense of self and identity.
