An instant best seller that is poised to become a classic, Moonwalking with Einstein recounts Joshua Foer's yearlong quest to improve his memory under the tutelage of top "mental athletes". He draws on cutting-edge research, a surprising cultural history of remembering, and venerable tricks of the mentalist's trade to transform our understanding of human memory. From the United States Memory Championship to deep within the author's own mind, this is an electrifying work of journalism that reminds us that, in every way that matters, we are the sum of our memories.

Excellent

Very good overview explaining how the mind works and the various techniques used to harness its capabilities. It is very well written and transfers each technique through real life examples. The stories follow people on each pole of memory ability, both past and present. There are enough take aways in this book to improve your own thought process and memory power. The book is not a technical manual of any specific method, nor does it hold itself out to be. Overall an excellent and entertaining book for anyone looking to improve their ability to learn, or help others do the same.

In Counterstrike, Eric Schmitt and Thom Shanker of the New York Times tell the story of how a group of analysts within the military, at spy agencies, and in law enforcement has fashioned an innovative and effective new strategy to fight terrorism, unbeknownst to most Americans and in sharp contrast to the cowboy slogans that characterized the U.S. government's public posture.

Seems like a great book. Listen to the sample before deciding to purchase. I could not make it past the first chapter, before taking off my headphones. The narrator is only a single notch above the automated voice on the overhead at an airport. I think I will be reading the hardcopy. I have bought over 20 books on Audible and have never had this problem before. Again listen to the sample.
