Memory and the Hippocampus: A Synthesis from Findings with Rats, Monkeys, and Humans.
Squire, Larry R.
Psychological Review, v99 n2 p195-231 Apr 1991
The role of the hippocampus in memory function is discussed. Work with rats, monkeys, and humans largely agrees concerning its function and structure.
