I bought the book on the assumption that it would probably deliver about half what it promised and that would have been enough for my needs, I was Dumbstruck by the ease of nearly all of the techniques and wished I had purchased the book earlier. I now regularly multiply 3 digit by 3 digit numbers(ie 345 x 543=187335) in my head in 10's of seconds not minutes etc.
If you need to be numerate but are not, then within 30 days you could be and more! Buy it today

Awesome book. I purchased this book because I wanted to improve my financial literacy and realised that I needed to raise my maths game. It really helped me out a lot and now a lot of people say 'damn, your good with numbers'. I would also check out Vedic Mathematics; which this book touches on briefly.
If only these books were taught to primary school children then we would have Einstein's already. Because current teaching methods and books are completely outdated. Damn.

This is one powerful book. Master the techniques in this book and your whole life will change. People will be flabbergasted as to how you perform mental calculations faster than they can perform them on a calculator. Don't be a "mathmatically challanged" person any longer. Just do it!

Bigfoot dave's calculation is wrong
I don't think any of you seem to have taken much from the book since, £127 divided by four is actually £31.75.
