About the Author

Dave got his Guinness record by memorizing the order of 52 decks of cards all shuffled together- that's 2,704 cards! DAVE DOES NOT HAVE A PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY! His memory is just like yours! He developed a revolutionary system of memory and focus techniques - and now he wants to share them with you. Dave believes that any average person, given the right techniques, can develop a superhuman memory. He broke the previous record for the sole purpose of proving that given the right techniques, an average person can surpass an individual born with a photographic memory! All previous holders of this record had photographic memories.

Breaking the record also gave Dave the chance to test out his system of focus techniques. To give you an idea, it took over 8 HOURS just to recall all of the cards - now that's focus!

Dave has spent nearly a decade in the area of memory and mental focus, giving talks, writing books and leading workshops for people of all ages and abilities. Dave has condensed all of his knowledge into Memory Mastermind, and is proud to share this system with you!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great stuff but too pricey for what you get., April 12, 2000

This review is from: #1 Memory Mastermind (Audio Cassette)

The memory techniques definitely work! But unfortunately for me, I've already read Harry Lorayne's memory book. Many of the core concepts are identical but Memory Masterminds gives different twists to certain things...like how to memorize numbers, for example. Although great for people who would rather listen than read...Harry Lorayne's book is better bang for the buck! Also some of the lessons in Memory Masterminds could be shortened to 5 minutes but he takes an extra 15 minutes relating stories and hyping up his product...entertaining but not when you're short on time. Also the "Self Improvement" section isn't that "breakthrough." If you've never read a memory help book before and you'd rather listen than read, AND you can afford and extra $50, then buy it. But you can get the same core principles from Harry Lorayne! Bottom line: great stuff but mostly the "same stuff," only on tape.

4.0 out of 5 stars Memory technics made practical, May 20, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: #1 Memory Mastermind (Audio Cassette)

Dave Farrow's book/ course Memory Mastermind makes use of old techniques in a novel manner. The technology of images which is the basis of the programme has been available for a while, but that which makes this course relevant and useful is the applications. He combines image technology with 'mind and confidence boosting' techniques and plain common sense to produce a motivational course helpful to anyone who wishes to remember any material whatsoever.

The course is worthwhile to anyone who has never read or researched anything about memory techniques and who would like to improve his/her memory. It will certainly aid and increase retention and the capacity to study. In will also provide useful tips to anyone who does have a grounded knowledge of memory techniques.

I found the course to be fun and enjoyable. Though the organization of the tapes could be better, the exercises are kept short and sweet and you can work through at your own time and at your own pace.

I read this book flying cross country. It changed my life by allowing me to clear my mind of useless thoughts. I will keep this book on my shelf of books for a long time and share it with only those close to me.
