Without memory, you would not be able to maintain a relationship, drive your car, talk to your children, read a poem, watch television, or do much of anything at all.

Memories are an integral part of being human. They haunt us, we cherish them, and in our lives we collect more of them with each new experience. Without memory, you would not be able to maintain a relationship, drive your car, talk to your children, read a poem, watch television, or do much of anything at all. Memory: A Very Short Introduction explores the fascinating intricacies of human memory. Is it one thing or many? Why does it seem to work well sometimes and not others? What happens when it "goes wrong"? Can it be improved or manipulated through techniques such as mnemonic rhymes or "brain implants"? How does memory change as we age? And what about so-called recovered memories--can they be relied upon as a record of what actually happened in our personal past? This book brings together our most recent knowledge to address (in a scientifically rigorous but highly accessible way) these and many other important questions about how memory works, and why we can't live without it.About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.

Easy to use, pepper doesn't get stuck
Size: 2 Count (Pack of 1)
I'm never going back to an electric grinder again!!! I like my pepper on the fine side - I don't like to bite into a chunk of peppercorn. With those electric grinders, the peppercorns get stuck and the motors don't have enough 'oompf' to plow through. This handy dandy grinder absolutely does! I'm able to easily adjust the size of the grind and the mechanism is smooth and easy to handle. The shape feels good in my hand and the 1/2 cup container is a great size. You don't have to refill it too often. Between the shape of the grinders and the holder, I feel it looks nice on my table. I couldn't be more pleased!!

Work great, easily adjustable and great for Celtic salt.
Size: 2 Count (Pack of 1)
I love these. They work fantastic and are easy to adjust. You can get mixed color pepper and I use Celtic salt in them. Great quality and come with the carrier.

I really like this salt and pepper grinder. It works smoothly and is very easy to use. The grinding is even and consistent, and the material feels strong and well made. It has a nice design that looks great in the kitchen.

Good quality and great value

Willow & Everett Salt and Pepper Grinder Set - Stainless Steel Manual Mills
I bought this set because my smaller pepper grinder broke. This set is very similar in style, though larger.
I really like it! The larger size is easier to handle and can store more pepper and salt inside it, meaning it needs less frequent refills. The adjustable grinder mechanisms work very well. The lids are easy to take on and off. The caddy is a little flimsy, but that wasn't why I bought the set. If you are swayed by the caddy, then you might be disappointed if it receives heavy use (like a family dinner table). But the mills and grinders themselves are good quality and a great bargain.

Simplicity wins here
Size: 2 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 2 Count (Pack of 1)
These S/P grinders are simple but I love it. I've purchased several grinders over the years. Some powered, a set using levers to grind, other manual twisters — each with cute features — that all had flaws with filling ease or the powered versions just quit working. This set is so easy to fill, adjust, and use, look, and feel great in hand, and don't break the bank with gimmicks. This set is form and function at its best.
UPDATE: So I purchased this set in Nov of 2024. As you can see, it was love. Of late, the grinders have become problematic…especially the salt grinder. The salt grinder got to where even adjust the grind size because it took all I could do to even get the adjustment screw cap to screw on.
Salt was getting trapped so I disassembled the grinder cap and cleaned it over and over. With each use, the grinder got more loose. Tonight, it finally gave up.
No. These grinders aren’t extremely expensive but, from the reviews and ratings, I’m highly surprised and disappointed.
