Now Grandmaster of Memory Ed Cooke offers up his memory secrets with a fun, quick and completely unforgettable way to remember the things you thought you never could.But this is no boring Willy, Willy, Harry, Ste. With Ed leading the way on unlikely adventures through people and places, Abraham Lincoln may become a circle of bra-wearing hams linking arms in your mind, and you may well encounter a fridge wearing Calvin Klein underpants. You could also soon find yourself rattling off the prime ministers to a rapt audience and adding, in a knowing tone, ‘ah yes, Marquess of Rockingham, Whig I believe?’. What is for sure is that you’ll be bursting with knowledge that will stick in your mind and impress your friends for ever.About author:I’m interested in the art and science of remembering things. My book, “Remember, Remember” is a fun way to learn the order of the Presidents, Kings and Queens, and other useless trivia. Most of my time is devoted to build www.memrise.com, a site that helps you learn all kinds of vocabulary, and especially Chinese characters, extremely quickly. http://www.amazon.com/Remember-Learn-Stuff-Thought-Never-ebo…
