Product Description

Review

"Mind Performance Hacks" is an entertaining and rewarding read for anyone interested in improving the way they use their brain. Many of the hacks are really a framework upon which to build your own systems... The techniques are inspiring and practical." Gavin Inglis, news@UK, June 2006

Product Description

You're smart. This book can make you smarter. "Mind Performance Hacks" provides real-life tips and tools for over clocking your brain and becoming a better thinker. In the increasingly frenetic pace of today's information economy, managing your life requires hacking your brain. With this book, you'll cut through the clutter and tune up your brain intentionally, safely, and productively. Grounded in current research and theory, but offering practical solutions you can apply immediately, "Mind Performance Hacks" is filled with life hacks that teach you to: use mnemonic tricks to remember numbers, names, dates, and other flotsam you need to recall; put down your calculator and perform complex math in your head, with your fingers, or on the back of a napkin; spark your creativity with innovative brainstorming methods; use effective systems to capture new ideas before they get away; communicate in creative new ways - even using artificial languages; make better decisions by foreseeing problems and finding surprising solutions; and improve your mental fitness with cool tricks and games. While the hugely successful "Mind Hacks" showed you how your brain works, "Mind Performance Hacks" shows you how to make it work better.

5.0 out of 5 stars funky, 11 April 2006

By	D. Graham "dave graham" (Wakefield, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great little book, full of funky tricks and tips for improving, amongst other things, your mental arithmetic, memory, ability to brainstorm effectively and so on.

The hacks themselves are split neatly into eight sections: Memory, information processing, creativity, math, decision making, communication, clarity, and 'mental fitness'

Some of the hacks in the book are pretty intense, requiring a fair amount of legwork (or should that be brainwork?) to get them up and running. Some of the memory systems for example would clearly need you to remember the system before you could remember other things!

I loved the way that the hacks are set out - starting out with what the hack will achieve, how it would work 'in action', then applying it so that you can see how it would work 'in real life'

My favourite section was the Creativity section, with some great ideas and tips for getting the old grey matter ticking along. As with every O'Reilly book I've read, the author's style is friendly, clear and informative, not to mention funny.

You may not use all the hacks in this book, but I'll bet you a dollar you come out of it wanting to try more than a few. Top stuff.

1.0 out of 5 stars Rubbish, 8 Sep 2009

By	C. Lambah (Shrewsbury, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a snappy title with rubbish contents. I like nothing about the format or the formulaic content
