Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

While we were working on the covers of the repackaged mass market edition, I was intrigued
to see that one of the authors was an ex-New York Knick from one of the great championship
teams of my youth. I read Jerry Lucas's introduction with some curiosity and was hooked
immediately. I, too, had spent a great deal of my childhood inventing alphabetical and
numerical games. (As a result, I can still recite the phone numbers of a dozen or so elementary-school friends from thirty years ago!) I realized that I still used some of these tricks, but that there were even more ways I could use letters, numbers, and symbols to retain information. The techniques are interesting and ultimately fun. Oh, and let's not forget helpful.

A life-long experience in a book to enhance memory

The book that makes you go through the experience of the author and how he learns to improve himself in the memorizing aspect is just mind blowing. Harry Lorayne has the experience of expanding his memorization potential over time and the techniques mentioned in here are also that he applied to his brain expansion. This book "The Memory Book: The Classic Guide to Improving Your Memory at Work, at School, and at Play" is just one of the phenomenal books if you are really serious in boosting up your memory.

Then when I searched for the book that not only make me increase my memory but in reality gives the control of my mind to me, I also came to know about this excellent book Maximizing Brain Control : Unleash The Genius In You. You can increase the memorization power with different tips and tricks but taking full control so that there remains no door unlocked for your memory to be enhanced, you can always go through this book to add up to your memorizing skills.

Harry Lorayne has proven himself to be the master at increasing mind's potential. The thing is that there is no way that you would master any trick overnight but with the techniques he share with you that he have used for all his life and have benefit from them up till today. It is your time to get on with learning the techniques and get the boost in your memory while you study, play or even when you are hanging out with friends. The only thing that would make your memory perfect is how much you dedicate yourself to them.

The author has taught with his experience that how he step by step mastered the techniques and how you can become proficient at them too so that you can get the grasp on your memory. This book is worth having especially if you are tired of looking around for memory improving books. Just commit yourself to the memory techniques present in here for you and get the success graph go through the roof.

The Memory Book

Bytwikkioneon August 29, 2014

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

The book says you can improve your memory by telling stories which might work for me if I could only remember the stories that go with the words and numbers, otherwise , might work for some people to memorize a lot of things in life.

Practical and effective!

ByMr. Walkeron May 19, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I have always had trouble with teachers who don't explain themselves very well. Such was not the case with these two. My memory has greatly improved just because I've tried their methods. I also learned that I do some of these things already, so I now have the tools to "remodel" my memory techniques. A free tip: actually try the examples - I still remember a lot of those too!

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I've been reading and practicing the techniques presented for months. I believe that my memory has improved. However, this book is sort of like learning a language. You have to really work over a long period of time to benefit from it.

ByIrene Haydikon April 18, 2015

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

From time to time during my entire adult life I have turned to this book for refreshing all that I have learned and get new inspiration to go on the next project, or face a new challenge. No matter how many times I lost this book I always got a new one because no-one can be more helpful when it comes to memory than Harry Lorayne. Everyone should read it.

The Memory Book

I think that it has no new information but it has a very good summary of all techniques in a very clear way.

Classic, still has lots to teach

There are quite a few dated references (circa 1974), and the techniques are shown with painfully lengthy examples, but the ideas are basic enough to get the first time through,...Read more
