1.0 out of 5 stars
Remember not to buy this book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Super Memory: A Quick-Action Program for Memory Improvement (Paperback)
It is certainly not worth its price. I was discouraged when I realized I couldn't return mine because I unfortunately filled out a small survey towards the beginning of the book in pen. The book is 270 pages of common sense. The author dwells on things that have no relation to developing a better memory. An entire chapter is devoted to making it clear that when we forget something people don't like us. Another on how eating nutritious foods and exercising is good for memory. Another chapter simply reaffirms us that we should trust our memory, as if we needed a boost of self confidence. More common sense taking a totally neutral stance, a little stress is good but not too much! a little coffee is okay but not too much! etc. I'm sure you can find something better, good luck!

A very thorough book on memory techniques,
By A Customer
This review is from: Super Memory: A Quick-Action Program for Memory Improvement (Paperback)
I've examined many memory-improvement books out there in the market. This book by far is the best-organized , and also the most complete. You can waste your money buying more fancy books or tapes on the subject, or you can save money by buying this book that summarizes all the known techniques in a very useful way. I strongly disagree with the previous reviewer on his assessment of this book.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Impractical,
By A Customer
This review is from: Super Memory: A Quick-Action Program for Memory Improvement (Paperback)
The ideas given in Super Memory are impractical. It introduces many memory aids for your mind. Yet, if you really think about it, instead of remembering these memory aids to remember things, then why don't you just write it down? His book does not teach you how to memorize a list of 100 very random characters like some other books. This book is worth skimming -- in your spare time. I rate it 2 stars.
