"For the sciences, the way to change science's perception of things is to wait until all the old farts have died off."
- Larry Niven

Memory Biochip  
  An implanted device that permits the user to 'play back' selected memories.  

"Lieutenant Illyan also has an eidetic memory biochip. You may think of him as a recording device with legs, which the Emperor may play back at will."
From Shards of Honor, by Lois McMaster Bujold.
Published by Baen Books in 1986
