Rating:  Summary: A/O ALL Review: An excelent read for anyone wishing to remember anything ay all. I no longer need a note book to keep track of everything. the time needed to remember is less than writing it down. YOU MUST READ IT
Rating:  Summary: What a fantastic book!! Review: If this book was required reading in school, everyone would be a straight "A" student. All my friends think I'm blessed with a photographic memory. If they only knew all I did was just read this book. (I didn't tell them either!)
Rating:  Summary: good book on memory Review: This is the first book I've every read on improving memory. It isn't a bad book, all of the memory techniques work and are a complete set (remember faces, numbers, facts, lists etc..) and the book is well written.The biggest reason that I give it a 3 star rating instead of a 4 or 5 is that the book is badly dated. It needs a re-write or a new edition with photos instead of bad line drawings (of people's faces for the remembering names section) and the constant references to cigarettes (I don't know why, but there is always cigarettes to remember on half of the word lists and various examples, a pet peeve for a non smoker). If you're looking for a better book, check out Kenneth Higbee's "You Memory" which I consider THE book on memory and memory techniques. You can also check Lorayne's newer books. "The Memory Book" by Lorayne and Lucas is much better and much newer, although it contains almost identical information.
