1912. The success of every individual in his every day life, business, trade or other occupation depends in one way another upon possessing a good memory. The idea of cultivating a good memory is carried out in detail as the reader progresses with the various stages of the subject through this book. The reader will see that the first thing to do is to find something to remember; then to impress that thing clearly and distinctly upon the receptive tablets of the memory; then to exercise the remembrance in the direction of bringing out the stored facts of the memory; then to acquire the scientific methods of recollecting special items of memory that may be necessary at some special time.

About the Author
American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was born in Baltimore and had built up a successful law practice in Pennsylvania before professional burnout led him to the religious New Thought movement. He served as editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and as editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books-including The Philosophies and Religions of India, Arcane Formula or Mental Alchemy and Vril, or Vital Magnetism-under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today.

not what I thought,

This review is from: MEMORY: How to Develop, Train and Use It (Paperback)
Not for me. I bought it, thinking it would be more accessible to my needs. A bit dated. I couldn't get into it.

Old Memory Still New,

This review is from: MEMORY: How to Develop, Train and Use It (Paperback)
Reading a book written in 1913 that still rings true today was a real joy. Found it to be a joy and much better than most of the more current publications on this topic. The practical advice is timeless and life changing.

Learning how to Remember Everything!,
By An Avid Reader (Sausalito, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Memory: How to Develop, Train and Use It (Paperback)
What an incredible find this book is. I have read others on how to build my memory but none as cohesive and extensive as this one. My memory started to improve as soon as I started doing some of the exercises. Don't let the date 1912 make you think that this book won't help you. It will!
