Description

This is a book for all types of students and professionals who would like to increase their ability to learn more rapidly and remember a wide range of material. The authors are professional psychologists who have specialized in this particular field, and their suggestions here are based on research findings about what actually works. The orientation is very practical, and the framework involves an explicit recognition that different techniques are required for different tasks. Extremely specific advice is provided regarding how to best approach many well-defined memory and learning situations, with a strong emphasis on how one's general health can significantly affect the ability to absorb and retain information, which is partly seen as a physical task, not just a mental one.
