2.0 out of 5 stars Kevin is a good salesman, November 6, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Advanced Mega Memory (Audio Cassette)

Folks... if you are like me, looking to improve your memory and get that promised "Photographic memory" skill, then don't buy this book. Too bad! I bought the whole kit for US $160.00. I have gone through the whole course, and did exactly what Kevin said. I was able to remember phone numbers, and other little things, but that was it. You must always keep repeating what you ought to remember often and if you lose the "funny" graphic images, you lost the info. The kit is more of a good salesmanship than a decent content. For the price I paid, it was not worth it.

1.0 out of 5 stars I am Disappointed, I purchased the tapes at a higher cost., October 25, 1998

By A Customer

Kevin Trudeau: Operates on the assumption that all people think in pictures. I and the small population of people do, but what about those that can not visualize a Pepsi Can and rotate it about it axis within their minds eye (not from the tapes/book but from an engineering professor when I was in college.) Only about 10% of the population are capable of visualization, this is not a problem with me but a warning to those who can not visualize pictures. Kevin, uses the technique of hanging thoughts on a hanger and using obscure action methods of filing the information or hanging this on a body part. The filling method is not a new method as kevin claims, while stationed in Germany in the 80's as an Intelligence Specialist, I read everything on memory improvement, the filing method was mentioned in a book that I purchased for about $4.00, it was lost in transport back from europe. Honestly in the 2 tape package, nothing is included but false hype to get you to purchase the Mega Memory eight audiocassettes, workbook and pocket guide. It appears to me that Kevin wants to make a buck with a bad product, nice sound effects and no meat to the product. I will be calling on the next business day to see if Nightingale actually will honor their claim to a money back guarantee. I'll let you know.

2.0 out of 5 stars No added value, January 8, 2001

This review is from: Advanced Mega Memory (Audio Cassette)

I have bought this book hoping to find some tools to improve my memory. Instead I had to listen to two hours of a monotonous drill on one basic idea - that remembering is better if there is an association with a movement, picture, colour, feeling, etc. in our brain. Although true, that idea is not even original. You can find it in books by Tony Buzan published more than 20 years earlier!

The title of the book almost makes me lough - Advanced Mega Memory! A nicely packaged junk food. If you are really interested in improving your memory, in how the brain works and in learning how to use it, then I can highly recommend books by the above mentioned Tony Buzan - Use Both Sides Of Your Brain and Speed Reading.
