Use Both Sides of Your Brain: New Mind-Mapping Techniques, Third Edition

Another gem of a book from the master of learning.Well written. Great graphs and diagrams.Very helpful in my doing so well academically in medical school and in my psychiatry training.Thank you, Tony Buzan!

This was a good book. However, it was a book that touched upon several major memory topics. To delve further you were suggested to purchase other books by this author to get indepth knowledge about memory techniques. I would suggest buying the actual memory books by this author and save some money and forego this book.

A great eternal resource for self improvement. Buy these as gifts to go along with some cash to graduates. If they invest a couple of hours to read and practice it will help them in many areas.

I have used put Buzan's book on my university courses required reading for 30 years. I use his approach in lectures. I use the approach to organize data for all tasks. I consider his graphic outlining to be essential.

A little windy but has some really great ideas about learning. I have been able to incorporate a few of them into my e-learning design but a lot of them have to do with learning outside the e-learning course or the classroom they could be effectively applied to blended learning situations.

good read

Though it was written awhile back, it still contains many useful and practice theories and studies relevant today.

Perfect present for my college bound 17yr old. Very useful info.

On my last order I purcahed amongst others, 3 books on study techniques. One of them ofcourse being this book, unfourtunaly one can say I read this book first.The book covered no special direction in studying, college, university, at home, at work ... It was facinating to learn/understand how the mind processes infomation, so you can serve the information to it as the mind prefers it!the book cover some great aspects:*How to read activly*Evaluating WHAT to read*Creating mind-maps*Recalling information*Reading fasterAll layed out in a easy to follow pace and intresting. I read the entire book in one evening.The next day I discovered I didn't need the two other books on study skills... just wasted 20£, thats why it was unfortunate that I read this book first :) Anyway I read the two books (I mean I had bought them) like I learned from Tony Buzan. I finished them both in one evening... And a whole suitcase of confidence, ready to take on far more complicated books. Now I know how and what to read, and remember what i read.I highly recomend this book to everyone considering learning anything (that should cover most of us).

I have not got very far on this book yet but am very happy with what I have read. Looking forward to getting through the rest ofit.

still reading the book so far so good

It's a good book. It was in very good quality like it hadn't been read. Arrived at a decent time.

Whilst this makes for a moderately interesting read, this book really doesn't change anything about the way you think, even though I have put some of his suggestions into practice. Read it for interest only, but please don't hold out any hope of it unleashing any of the hidden brainpower within you!
