Dave Meier's twenty five years experience in the business of helping people make more of their learning really shows in this must-have volume. Where other authors may present theories and good intentions, Meier comes up with ultra-practical and proven ideas which have helped me many times. Add to this a great grasp of the development of accelerated learning methods and an excellent list of worldwide resource suppliers and expertise, and we have a milestone. If you're serious about learning, you'll want to buy, use and recommend this book. I've been using these ideas professionally for over ten years, and this is the finest distillation I've yet tasted.

If you only buy one book on accelerated learning make it this one!
I purchased 5 books and this one was by far the best laid out, easiest to read and digest. With sections on perp, presentation, practice and performance and with lots of practical activities which you can put into practice its well worth taking the time out to read!

If you want to make your training both easier and more effective - for you and your trainees - then this is for you. If you expect an Accelerated Learning book to be varied, readable, inspiring and eminently practical, then you will be delighted. Add to that a simple, highly-accessible model for applying it all to programme design, plus literally hundreds of exercise ideas, tips and resources, and you'll wish you got hold of this book years ago. As someone who has been using AL for some time, but only discovered Dave Meier's model a year ago, I was eagerly awaiting his first book, with high expectations. As you can tell, I was not disappointed. Read this to give yourself more time, less stress, and happier and more motivated learners.
