A bestselling author, her work has been transformed into an Oscar-winning film, Still Alice, but the real triumph is Genova's ability to help us empathize with a person's journey we otherwise couldn't even begin to understand. Her newest book, Remember: The Science of Memory and the Art of Forgetting, is nonfiction and explores how we remember, why we forget and what we can do to improve and protect our memories.
