If you want to amuse yourself and to improve your way of thinking get this book. I always thought that there is nothing in this kind of book but I was wrong. For those that must do learning on every day basis this book is more than helpful. (I am computer engineer and I know what I'm saying) You will learn how to remember 10 things in a few minutes, 100 in a day, and in a month maybe 10000 or more. Magic? No, just introduce yourself better. However, my personal opinion about all these techniques in the books is that you should be careful of the area where are you using it. For learning and your job it might be OK, but not so in every day situation. Why? Simply, we still don't know how our brain is functioning and all consequences that any techniques may produce. Let leave the nature way of living together with all wished improvement of life.

Now in its revised and expanded second edition, Learning Maps And Memory Skills by Ingemar Svantesson (an expert and veteran conductor of more than one thousand seminars throughout Scandinavia, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand on the theory and practice of learning maps and memory skills) is the distillation of an impressive body of the wisdom, insight and advice.
