2.0 out of 5 stars The same as his other books, September 29, 2005

This review is from: Master Your Memory (Paperback)

If you have read one book of Buzan, you know about all there seems to be coming from him. This book is mainly about the major system (described only shortly).
About half the book consists of historical data (writers, composers, painters, etc.), ready to be learned. That is why I bought the book. The bad thing, though, is that he does not really explain how to learn them. Basically he just sais "here you are, learn it".
This holds especially true for Shakespeare. His advice of reading a summary first does not help me to "memorize" his books :-(

Finally there is (again) a list of the most important 100 words of several languages with pronounciation. I am German and the Germen pronounciation has a very strong american accent to it. Not completely wrong, but not correct either, so be careful about that.

This review is from: Master Your Memory (Paperback)

This book is very good using the techniques i was able to memorize stuff i would have never thought I could in a million years! I was able to recite the lists of stuff inside to memorize like a tape recorder. It could use a bit more info and more tutoring on the subtleties. A chunk of the book is taken up by lists but that was alright for me because it gave a great way to test the techniques and it was useful information to learn.
