Summary
Historically significant public events sometimes organize autobiographical memory, acting as temporal landmarks and providing the thematic content which defines the lifetime periods they spawn (Brown and Lee, 2010; Brown, Lee, Krslak, et al., 2009). We begin this chapter by briefly reviewing a research program that has demonstrated the existence of these historically defined autobiographical periods and that has allowed us to identify the conditions that bring them about. In this section, we also present data from four samples of World War II-generation adults, data which prove that historically defined autobiographical periods endure over time. Next, we consider the theoretical implications of these findings. In particular, we introduce a new approach to autobiographical memory called the transition theory. This approach assumes that autobiographical memory is organized by transitional events and that these transitions can be self-initiated or externally imposed. On this view, historically defined autobiographical periods are formed by externally imposed transitions. We develop this point in the third and final section of this chapter.
The living-in-history project
War, terrorism, and natural disasters can have far-reaching effects on the lives of those involved (Blaikie, Cannon, Davis, et al., 1994; Levy and Sidel, 1997; McNally, 2003). Collective memory for extraordinary social events can also play a critical role in the construction and maintenance of group identities and in the persistence of intergroup hostility (Bar-Tal, 2007; Cairns and Roe, 2003; Halbwachs, 1992; Hirst, Cuc, and Wohl, this volume). Our project examined the mnemonic impact of public events at the individual level in order to understand when autobiographical memory and historical events can become intertwined. More specifically, the program of research was undertaken to determine whether public events affect the organization of autobiographical memory and to specify the conditions that result in the creation of historically defined autobiographical periods. We were interested in this issue because we suspected that people who had “lived in history” might understand the recent past in a different way than those who had not, and that this understanding might ground current and future beliefs about that past. For this reason, we wanted to identify public events that caused people to “live in history” and to distinguish these epoch-defining events from other significant public events.

We have developed an optoelectronic laser interferometry microscope (OLIM) methodology for rapid characterization of MEMS' motion dynamics. In this study, electrostatic comb drive actuated microengines comprised of a 64 μm diameter drive gear and a 300 μm output gear (load gear) were characterized dynamically. Two different input signals were used: 1) a four-step square wave input and 2) an optimized input signal calculated from an analytical model. Out-ofplane motion on rotating microgears was measured as a function of the input signals. The outof-plane motions for the drive during the four-step input ranged from zero to ±462 nm and from zero to ±514 nm for the drive and output gears, respectively. For the optimum input, the out-ofplane motions ranged from zero to ±1030 nm for the drive gear. However, for the output gear the tilt magnitudes were nearly constant at ±514 rum, and were independent of angular position. The more constant out-of-plane motions of the load gear for the optimized signal are due to improved kinematics and kinetics leading to more continuous rather than impulsive forces (e. g., frictional, inertial) acting on the output gear.

Introduction:
Awareness of the risk of spinal-cord damage in moving an unconscious person with a suspected neck injury into the “lateral recovery position,” coupled with the even greater risk of inadequate airway management if the person is not moved, has resulted in a suggested modification to the lateral recovery position for use in this circumstance.
Hypothesis:It is proposed that the modification to the lateral recovery position reduces movement of the neck. In this modification, one of the patient's arms is raised above the head (in full abduction) to support the head and neck. The position is called the “HAINES modified recovery position.” HAINES is an acronym for High Arm IN Endangered Spine.
Methods:Neck movements in two healthy volunteers were measured by the use of video-image analysis and radiographic studies when the volunteers were rolled from the supine position to both the lateral recovery position and the HAINES modified recovery position.
Results:For both subjects, the total degree of lateral flexion of the cervical spine in the HAINES modified recovery position was less than half of that measured during use of the lateral recovery position (while an open airway was maintained in each).
Conclusion:An unconscious person with a suspected neck injury should be positioned in the HAINES modified recovery position. There is less neck movement (and less degree of lateral angulation) than when the lateral recovery position is used, and, therefore, HAINES use carries less risk of spinal-cord damage.

Summary
History is an extension of memory.
M. White (1963)The reality of these events does not consist in the fact that they occurred but that, first of all, they were remembered, and, second, that they are capable of finding a place in a chronologically ordered sequence.
H. White (1980)Introduction
Every day dozens of noteworthy events are reported in newspapers, on television, and in radio broadcasts. Depending on your reading, viewing, and listening habits, you may be exposed to several different descriptions of the same event over the course of a single day, or you may have to endure hearing the same version repeated a number of times. Further, these events may come up again in conversation and as the topics of magazine articles or film documentaries. The point is that exposure to current events is a common, almost unavoidable part of our daily experience and that information concerning these events, extracted from the media and from our interactions with others, is learned in the context of our own lives.
In this chapter we explore how the knowledge people have of recent history (public memories) is linked to their knowledge of their lives (personal or autobiographical memories). We expect a given public memory to be a blend of facts about the public circumstances in which the event occurred and facts about the personal matrix in which that information was acquired.

Psychological egoism is, I suppose, regarded by most philosophers as one of the more simple-minded fallacies in the history of philosophy, and dangerous and seductive too, contriving as it does to combine cynicism about human ideals and a vague sense of scientific method, both of which make the ordinary reader feel sophisticated, with conceptual confusion, which he cannot resist. For all of these reasons it springs eternal, in one form or another, in the breasts of first-year students, and offers excellent material for their philosophy instructors, who like nothing better than an edifice of sturdy appearance but with rotten foundations on which to display their skill as demolition experts.

In what sense can we not help thinking that every event has a cause? One answer is, that this begs the question: we can think of events as uncaused. Well, we can think of events in isolation from causes, and we can formulate the proposition that some events have no cause, or that no event needs a cause. But the first of these does not constitute thinking of an event as not caused, but thinking of an event not-as-caused (or, not thinking of the event as caused); while the implications of the second, forming anti-causal propositions, are obscure. I can verbally formulate the proposition ‘some events are uncaused’; the question is, whether it makes sense to affirm it. Now I can verbally formulate the proposition ‘some triangles are quadrilateral’, and we must not say that this does not make sense; for I know the criteria for being a triangle, and I know the criteria for being quadrilateral; and the proposition simply asserts that there are some figures which satisfy both sets of criteria. That this is logically impossible is true, but it is not unintelligible. It does not, however, make sense to affirm a logical impossibility, simply because I cannot meaningfully affirm what I do not understand and believe to be possible (though of course I can meaningfully affirm what I believe to be false), and if I understand what it means to be both triangular and quadrilateral, I cannot also believe it to be possible, since to understand what it means for a plane figure to have three sides is to understand that this excludes its having any other number of sides, e.g. four. But ‘some events are not caused’ is not logically incoherent in this way, or not apparently so; for in thinking of an event (as opposed to thinking of an effect) I am by definition thinking of a happening (whether caused or not) in isolation from any cause; I am thinking of it not as caused. Thus ‘some events are uncaused’ is not incoherent ex vi terminorum.
