Frankly, I didn't get much out of this book except that there are some pretty interesting mind map samples reproduced in the book. There is perhaps a key point or two, but I'm sorry to say I'm not enlightened. I've attended a CPD talk on the same topic and I must say, I gained more from there than from this book.

Great planning book, I have the software installed on all my computers and use it daily for strategy, planning, communications and presentations alike. Very helpful for revisiting issues or presentations long after your attention has been moved elsewhere and you need to refresh you view or message.

The book is very helpful but greatly enhanced by the proprietary software that accompanies it and links to this method of memory retention and planning.
