Publisher's Synopsis
This book teaches the ancient Greek and Roman methods of mnemonic tools to enable a student to do well in school. Mnemonics are a system of encoding to aid memory recall. These same techniques have been used to perform the most impressive memory feats in history at the International Memory Championships, where adult players memorize stacks of playing cards, facts, book contents, and other memory feats. This book will make school and learning exponentially faster. Passing tests becomes incredibly simple. Learning is remembering, and remembering is memorization. Your memory skill will improve greatly after reading this book. It has been condensed, and the author has eliminated much of the unrelated material that is found in other memory books.Here are the table of contents.1 Introduction to Memory2 The Image Linking System3 The Peg System4 The Peg System Demonstrated5 The Roman Room System6 The Phonetic Peg System7 Image Linking for Learning Language8 Image Linking for the Bible and History9 Image linking for Miscellaneous10 Medicine, Law, Physics, ReadingSpeeches, and your SubconsciousLearn by playing the "Reminds Me of Game" Derek invented to increase the effectiveness of mnemonic images.
