Thank you, Foer brother. That list will now never leave my brain.

Picked this up kinda on a whim after reading a favorable review.
I love the work of the older Foer and have always been interested in improving my seemingly abysmal memory.
Turned out to be a great read!

Not so much a book for learning memory technique.
More of a briefing on the history of remembering.
A great place to start though. As well as an excellent motivator.
Gotta love Josh Foer's chatty style of writing.

Pick it up and then teach yourself a deck of cards. Your brain isn't nearly as useless as you think it is.
