Synopsis

This book investigates how memory works and how it can be improved. It starts from the premise that there are three main types of memory: sensational, intellectual, and carrying. Sensational memory is the ability to remember things that are directly related to our senses, such as smells, tastes, and sounds. Intellectual memory is responsible for our ability to remember abstract concepts and ideas. Carrying memory, finally, relates to our ability to remember things that we have recently learned. The author argues that the type of memory that the book investigates is the intellectual memory. This type of memory is especially important for students, as it allows them to remember the concepts and ideas that they learn in class. The author provides a number of tips for improving intellectual memory, such as actively trying to recall information, using mnemonic devices, and avoiding distractions. The book also discusses the role of memory in creativity. The author argues that memory is essential for creativity, as it allows us to access our past experiences and use them to generate new ideas. The author concludes by emphasizing the importance of memory for both students and creatives.
