Product Description

Product Description

Sherlock Holmes is an incredible character and one who manages to remain relevant despite being conjured up decades ago. What we respond to is the idea of a man who uses immense intellect, cunning and skill to out-deduce, out-talk and out-think his opponents and to come out of any situation on top. All of us would like to display his kind of mental prowess and to command any scene with out immense knowledge and keen eye, and the good news is that a lot of what he does is attainable. With training and research there's no reason you can't be as perceptive, that you can't apply deduction and that you can't trick your opponents – or why all of those skills can't be applied to every day life.
In short, read this book and you'll get the mental edge over everyone around you. You'll learn:

* To be more observant
* To be more alert
* To use memory techniques to assign anything to memory and not forget
* The basics of human psychology
* How to spot clues
* How to interrogate and collect information
* How to persuade people
* How to speed read and think faster and how to use psychology in a fight.
* And a LOT more

It's all quite elementary really...

1.0 out of 5 stars Sherlick carnt spell 10 Oct 2012

A disjointed rambling hodgepodge of memory techniques, NLP and pop psychology with about as much reference to Sherlock Holmes as there is to Sun Tsu and Machiavelli and written in a crude, self conscious and often puerile style. The author advocates 'speed reading' - one gets the impression that this was 'speed written' with little regard for structure or spelling and appallingly poor editing. How not to think like Sherlock Holmes!

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money 27 Nov 2012
By Matthew Smith - Published on Amazon.com

I was excited to read this book, but was quickly disappointed. The advice in the book was very rudimentary at best. There is nothing here that you could not get by doing a quick Wikipedia search on the topic of interest. Besides the title, there is not mention of Sherlock Holmes at all. I would have expected there to be at least some central thesis about how doing these exercises and obtaining this skill would make you more like the famed gumshoe. It would not have been hard to pull in some illustrations from the original books.

I applaud that fact that he is a young man who is obviously trying to improve himself and is a very prolific writer of kindle. I just think that this book would have been better served as a series of blog posts (free) and not as a book.

While I am interested in the topic I found it a quick read, but redundant topics which only skimmed the subjects.
It needed some more detailed depth
