This review is from: Quantum Memory : Working Magic with Your Memory (Paperback)

This is a well written guide for improving memory skills while reminding us of the skills we already know. The format allows the reader to scan the information quickly and yet provides enough information for the suggestions to make sense. I used it as a resource for a study skills group. I plan to use it again in the future as well as other guides written by this author.
