The Learner's Pocket Book
If you go to any bookshop these days, you will find at the counter a whole range of "Little Books" that give you bite sized chunks of information and guidance to help you. The Learner's Pocket Book by Paul Hayden is a small pocket book as the name implies but its size is no indication of the amount of quality information regarding learning that you will find in its covers. It is an excellent summary of some of the leading guidelines and popular techniques and strategies in the memory and learning field. Divided into 8 sections (Brain Power, Learning Theory, Reasoning, Planning, Committing, Reflecting, Memory Tricks and Blocks to Learning) it uses lots of useful diagrams and relies on key word explanations making its contents much easier to digest and remember than a conventional learning text book. There is a very good section on Mind Mapping and at the very end of the book there is a useful Master Mind Map that summarises the content of the book. If you are a seasoned learner and have a good knowledge of learning theory this book will serve as a good summary of what you know but equally if you are just starting to look into learning techniques, this is a good place to start.
The Learner's Pocketbook by Paul Hayden (ISBN 1-870471-30-x) can be purchased from all good bookshops or ordered direct from Management Pocketbooks Tel +44 (0) 1962 735573.
