Moonwalking with Einstein : Josh Foer

Disappointing - 90% fluff. The non fluff :

Sigmund Freud found from his research that older memories seem to the rememberer as if described by an observer through a camera whereas the newer memories are more first-person-ish.

The Ad Herrenium is a must read.

If you want to feel like life is passing you by very fast, then make it monotonous. If you want to feel like time is passing slowly, then create anchors - memories that you can associate with moments in time - make your life interesting.
