Summary: Harry, you have done it again!!
Review: Harry is a long time educator and memory enhancement savant. I have been following his work closely for the past 14 years from my high schools days. This book gave me the confidence and self-motivation that our mind can be tricked to achieve amazing things. I use the word trick, because often what we see is a false-perspective of reality. Also, the vast areas covered in this book is a salute to Harry's diverse field experience from math to music to english to medicine. Thanks for sharing your secrets. Now, after this long and having done extensive research in Cybernetics, I still use this book to teach my students.

Summary: My memory improved....
Review: I have read this book a long time ago.
Harry Lorayne was always my master in memory development area.
I remember when I first saw one of his books and did not believe that all he says is possible.
Now I can say- thanks to his all books I am Memory Development Specialist now. Harry pushed me do discover what is inside all of us.
We are all geniuses, but we do not know it!
For now I can say I use some of his systems and with some suggestions from other masters... I can remember loooooong digit numbers, dates, appointments, new words (this was the most important thing for me all the time...to learn faster foreign language and now I can remember about 300 hundred words daily without too much effort).
This is not possible to explain all advantages you can get from your genius memory.
You just have to start and test it by yourself.
Bad memory costs you money...
Good memory... is easy to achieve:)
I am sure this book will change your life for better.
This is your choice.

Summary: For those who always wanted their own school mentor...
Review: I have used Harry Lorayne's phenomenal systems for 10 years ("Memory Power"). When my kids were only 3-5 years old, I was amazed at how I was able to play memory games with them, using his methods, and watch them perform incredible mind stunts effortlessly. Now that they are in school, I have been looking for something to help them learn more effectively. Lorayne's other books also refer to shortcuts for students, but this book is an absolute gold mine of practical examples. I cannot begin to fathom how much more pleasant my student days would have been if I'd had this book. Lorayne is indeed the world's greatest memory expert, but above all, his is a gifted teacher, as further evidenced in this fine book.

Summary: You get out of it what you put into it.
Review: I was every guidance counselor's nightmare - top 2% in standardized test scores, bottom 20% of my class. I hated school, and I hated college even more. Then I found Harry Lorayne's book and it changed my life.My college had no maximum on the number of credits you could earn by challenging the course. After learning Harry Lorayne's methods I tested out of two and one half years of college in eight months and graduated early. We home school our eight children and we use this book with every one of them, to great success. I'm also the director of a learning center where we use this book as well. Read the book, do the exercises, and use the tools every day.

Summary: Great if you can stick with it!
Review: This book can make you an amazing student if you stick with it. It covers all the major memory systems and has some great chapters focusing on certain hard subjects (chem, history, music) I also reccomend The Memory Book by Harry Lorayne and Jerry Lucas. Its kind of like a big brother to this book and covers a llittle more info but does not focus specifically on school.

Summary: Harry Lorayne is the best!
Review: To the person from Indonesia who called this "the kiddy way," I must say this: When I was in college (40 years ago), I searched for memory aids and found only mnemonic methods; I considered them to be artificial and did not use them. A year or so later, I met Harry Lorayne during a show (he was a mental expert and I was a musician). I was absolutely astounded at what he did and decided that however he did it, I would do the same thing. I told Harry that, and he laughed and said, "Just buy any of my books--they all say the same thing." I promptly bought ALL of his available books, found that he was correct, and returned all but one, "How to Develop a Super-power Memory." Yes, the method Harry teaches may seem to be a "kiddy way" or simplistic, but it REALLY works. My grades were "A"s thereafter. I remembered whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted, regardless of the detail. If Harry Lorayne's methods don't work for you, it is ONLY because you did not apply them. Period. Do not for a moment think that "miraculous" results cannot spring from "simple" methods. I also recommend anything Dr. Kenneth Higbee has written. Get Lorayne's and Higbee's books; do what they say; you WILL be successful. Peace.
