This is clearly a passion project from an author fully committed to tracking down every angle and documenting his efforts. But if you have read any other journalistic memory book—as opposed to a first-person how-to—almost all of the information here will be familiar. In some cases, it even feels as if the author has specifically chosen to follow the outlines of others when it comes to deciding what to include and what to leave out.I wish I could end this review there. If I could, this would at least be a 4-star book. But I can’t. Because if you believed that there is no need for proofreading in an age of spellcheck, this book is Exhibit A. I have no doubt that this book has been spellchecked; I don’t think I saw a single misspelled word. But the editing/proofreading was abysmal. There are multiple mistakes on every page: words missing, extra words, wrong words (e.g., “compassion” is used when the context suggests “comparison” as the correct word), and verbs/subjects not agreeing, missing/extra punctuation.
Pointing out these things is not nit-picking. When you’re encountering errors multiple times on every page, it affects your ability to read this book easily. Many sentences must be read multiple times in order to understand them. Then, three sentences later, you’re having to do it all over again.
I was a professional staff proofreader for three years for a book publisher. We were disappointed if even one error ended up in a published book. But this goes far beyond bad proofreading. I cannot believe that the author—a college professor—could have written a text riddled with so many problems. So what happened? No idea. But if you are considering this book, please be aware that it’s going to really annoy and confound you. And know also that almost all of the information is available in other, professionally published books.

Remembering Willie Nelson The Science of Peak Memory edition by Jeremy EC Genovese Health Fitness Dieting eBooks Reviews
I've known the author for years; this guy is the best.
Interesting book, and for me, effective. I've been exposed to memory improvement techniques before (lord knows, I need them), but nothing sticks. This book starts for with descriptions about the science and research, and anecdotes of feats of memory, the kind of stuff I enjoy reading. Then, eventually, here come the techniques! I just send a copy to my daughter, who is contemplating grad school. Nifty little book, professor.
It could have been informative BUT there were so many typo's and grammatical errors they distracted from the message thus causing the book to become useless and most unprofessional for this reader. The author most definitely needs another publisher, one with good proof readers.
Nicely written and researched.
Great read by an insightful author
