Rate this book
Some memory books claims that you can remember names for the rest of your life or remember absolutely everything in a book just by using a particular technique. Oddbjørn By set a memory world record in 2006 and knows the best memorisers in the world. And he knows that there exists no memory technique which can make you quickly learn and remember a whole textbook. Nor is it possible to remember everything, forever. But it s possible to improve your memory a lot. By learning Memo. Since 2006, the author has received more than 10,000 grateful emails from readers worldwide. Readers that have used Memo successfully for exams, learning languages, delivering speeches and presentations, remembering dances, card tricks and much more. As Antti R. from Finland wrote in an I have read memory books before, but your approach is by far the it's like your best friend telling you how the techniques really work. Thanks! Thanks for a life-changing book. It saved me when I was in trouble. In my second year of university I failed on two exams. I panicked. But then I read about your book, and that made the whole difference! Fantastic! Anna S, Sweden

Kirjan tekniikat ovat loistavia ja tavoittena onkin alkaa opettelemaan niitä. Jokaisen tulisi mielestäni hallita vähintäänkin perutekniikat, joiden avulla monenlaisten asioiden muistaminen on todella helppoa.

Kirja oli sikäli mullistava kokemus, että luettuani sen, uskon voivani muistaa hämmästyttäviä asioita. Voin opetella kaikki maailman valtiot pääkaupunkineen tai vaikka korttipakkoja jos siltä tuntuu. Opiskelussa tulen varmasti hyödyntämään kirjan antamia vinkkejä. Samoin kuin nimien muistamisessa.

Kirja opettaa myös lukuisia arjen muistamista helpottavia keinoja, osa oli ennestään tuttuja, osa uusia.

1.5 hours now gone in waste.

First i thought this book could help me remember what i understood in my study but this book entirely focuses on rote memorization of facts and information. Someone who’s interested in those methodologies might find it helpful, but if you’re a person looking for serious tips how to make concrete of your long term understanding, reading this book would be a complete waste of time.

It is a decent read, and has some great information, But I feel its lacking some meat and potatoes. It feels much more like a random brain dump of ideas, than an organized howto for improving your memory. There is a lot of good quality information, but other than some anecdotal examples you are left on your own to figure how on to start implementing and practicing the methods described.

This is one of those books that you just need. It's a necessity.

...You should probably get one of the recent ones though, because this edition is so old that they are removing it from libraries.

This book saved my life! I was totally desperate before my language
exam. I needed to remember a lot of words and information. But
everything I tried to store inside my head just disappeared in few
days and I needed to learn it again and again. It was definitely easy
just to go and shoot myself. But friend of mine kindly stopped me and
recommended to read a book called “Memo”. It was so easy and
interesting and I decided to use this technique just for fun. I had a
long list of words I couldn't remember and tried to visualize every
word. It was really funny to place strange people and items to
different places!

It was the easiest way to solve my problem, I tried ones and still
using this method in different situations.

I read the English version of the book. I would recommend doing the exercises, creating the journeys and doing some critical thinking about how the methods can be applied in your life. Personally I found the mental journeys a bit of a revelation. It clicked for me how to make it work. I plan to use this as a way to learn another language.
