Publisher's Synopsis

A RENOWNED BRAIN EXPERT SHARES THE SIMPLE TRICKS THAT WILL FUTURE-PROOF YOUR MEMORY

Memory gets worse with age - right? A fact of life. But what if we told you that wasn't necessarily true? That memory decline isn't inevitable.

In The Complete Guide to Memory, renowned neurologist and bestselling author Dr Richard Restak distils the wisdom of an entire career into a one-stop guide to the science of memory. Drawing on cutting-edge neuroscience, case studies, famous anecdotes and more, he offers tips and tricks for anyone who wants to strengthen their memory, protect themselves from diseases like Alzheimer's and think smarter.

Learn how to boost your memory through techniques like:

-Mind mapping and making lists
-Reading more novels than non-fiction
-'Chunking' several pieces of information together to make them easier to remember
-Choosing manual methods over technological solutions like phones and GPS

Packed full of information for anyone curious about the power of their memory, this is the only guide you need to train your memory and make it stronger.
