A very useful book of one who was 8 times world memory champion today and transmits his knowledge in an exciting book, very readable. From the beginning, he sets the tone with a reminder of the construction of mental maps (mind maping) that becomes a breeze. I feel more comfortable now in the construction of my own cards and I intend to use them to prepare for my exams. Links, visualización and associations are the pillars of the method, which he enriched with techniques of his own, as the method of numbers, shapes, allowing it to hold more than 7,500 solutions from Trivial Pursuit and can serve for exam preparation. I knew a little the principle taught in a Dale Carnegie course, and this had allowed me, at the request of my teacher to make a demostration of retaining 20 items and the order in which it was placed on the list in the disorder or from 1 to 20 have 20 to 1.Ceci in order to show the candidates in a few possibilities and dextérités that one could acquire in the courses. Subsequently, one becomes aware of the author's system to remember multiple quantities of a single glance. It assigns to each number 0-9 a letter of the alphabet and this helps to remember the numbers from 0 to 99 by assigning each letter of the name of a peer personalité.Si one must remember 4 numbers there is an association, very exaggerated characters represented by two letters, which carry out activities which are clean, eg Bugs Bunny (22 because B is the second letter of the alphabet) eating a carrot, or Charlie Chaplin (33, because the 3 is the C) bending a stick. By creating the most grotesque story can to impress our memory and linking 2 by creating associations, you come to remember numbers, more digits. This is interesting to remember the dates of history. The most interesting is the chapter dedicated to chemistry, because I love this science and dreamed of retaining the periodic table of elements. And I can attest to the end of the chapter to have retained all part of which he explained in detail with associations of its own and this applying the system he created. Why I have not retained the entire periodic table? Because he gives you his method well explained and leave you to make your own associations for the rest of the table. And the association system works, and find own associations requires a little practice, and a list of names proposed from 1 to 99 I have redrafted, since some names mean nothing to me, we need to create own hooks , who speak your language. The success, talent is working, and comprennet 5% inspiration and 95% more transpiration.Et working on associations created by oneself is easier recollection. He also speaks of loci memory systems used by the Greeks, and was talking very well and employed Giordano Bruno (pity that most of his works may be missing), Italian scholar, who died at the stake by the Inquisition. It is given a place, a place we know well each enmagasiner knowledge we want, and it gives you the key to do so. You aprrendrez how to improve language learning and how to retain texts using loci (cassetti della memoria) .And with the method of loci (places of memory?), You'll learn reciting a poem from the end, or repeat toward giving you the number it occupies or citing las sentences in reverse order. He refers to the work of Michel Gruneberg and linkword method for language learning. Which I am eager to purchase certain works because they are not all available. Although I learned a lot in this book, I am only at the beginning of the road, for memory to become champion, the author did not become from one day to another. But the greatest journey begins with the first step and I must say that am happy to be engaged me. This is the most beautiful adventure, the one that crosses the path of knowledge .....
