He leído varios libros sobre memorización. He utilizado las técnicas y ejercicios que he aprendido para cosas como memorizar charlas cuando me ha tocado ser ponente, memorizar la lista de la compra 'al vuelo' o que no se me olviden conceptos clave de algún libro que me interesaba. Las técnicas son parecidas en todos los libros de este estilo pero nunca antes me había encontrado con uno que ahondase tanto en las maneras de aplicarlas a la vida real.
Desde aprenderse rápidamente los nombres de todas las personas en una reunión, recordar los aspectos clave de cada conversación que uno tenga, no olvidar el contenido de los libros que uno lee, recordar lo que se dice cuando uno acude a una charla y un montón de aplicaciones más, hasta cómo utilizar estas técnicas de forma integrada en un plan maestro que le permita a uno crecer profesionalmente.
Para mí, 100% recomendable.

This week I have been endeavouring to read as many books on memory as I can, and this has been my best rea of the book. Like most writers, Channon repeats the main techniques that were originally popularised by Harry Lorayne and Tony Buzan and others. What makes this book stand out is both its comprehensiveness and its warmth. Purchasing the book covers a number of books in one volime and the author practices what he preaches and shows how the techniques can be used for a wider variety of purposes. The key element is practice. The more you practice, the stronger your memory muscle will become. Great!
