Thanks for the magic, Harry.

I learned so much from this book. At almost 54, I have struggled with memory issues for year or so I thought. Turns out I did not have any decent systems to work with. I recommend downloading the kindle too for reference.

Harry is the master

A must listen/read if you are into memory training.My only criticism is the book could have been longer.

excellent

The exercises will definitely help anyone improve their memory. I also bought the hard copy of the book so that i could thoroughly learn everything that book has to offer.

Went back for a refresher, it still works!

I highly recommend this book to kids in school and any adults having to learn any text books.

Great book

My 7-year-old son and I have listen to Ageless Memory & How to Improve Your Memory several times and we are having fun using these techniques to improve our memory.

Enjoyed it

My biggest disappointment was the cuss words. He could have left them out and made his points just as effectively. I found the program useful. This is a good introduction on how to memorize names, lists, numbers, the number that each item in a list comes in, speeches, playing cards, etc. For more thorough covering of these and more techniques, I'd recommend Dominic Obrien's "Quantum Memory Power".

OK, but this is a book for print

This is one of those books that should be bought in print. Preferably paperback because you will want to go back an use it as a reference. The stories a compelling and Harry Lorayne's achievements are astonishing. When you realize that these techniques work better than what you were taught in formal education you will be tempted to make a life change. However, this is not a read it and forget it book, and improving your memory appears to be one of the most important steps you can take in metacognition. I like the book, but I am now looking for the best way to learn to memorize, and at this time it appears Dominic O'Brien may have a superior memory technique. (see World Memory Championships).

Useful

interesting concept and info presented by a great character....delightful voice! Like listening to an old vaudevillian deliver a lecture.

Not for everyone

10 years ago I purchased Harry's memory training techniques program with little results and I thought I would try it again. The information in this book is exactly what he taught 10 years ago. Although some people may find this helpful, for me it was not. You may get a few nuggets of useful information out of it, but don't expect to improve your memory.

My favorite audible book so far

This taught me to be more confidant about memory -- you really can make life easier by learning to remember - names, numbers, routines, etc. I can remember all manner of numbers now, I can recite the BIll of Rights, but it is a skill you have to practice. I plan to read this book again in 6 months and do a phase-two memory plan.
