| Medico Mnemonica: A Collection of Fun, Ribald, Irreverent and Quite Witty Mnemonics for Medical Students by E. S. Marlowe |
|
As the author says Medico Mnemonica "is remarkably useful for anybody studying medicine, nursing, dentistry, and many other health professions. It is the definitive source for medical memory aides." No one will know better than medical students themselves just how much material there is to remember for their examinations, and all those who have anything less than a perfect photographic memory will hail Marlowe's collection of mnemonics as a Godsend. The author describes himself as the "Roget or Webster of [Medical] Mnemonics" and also points out that the impregnable plastic wrap in which his copy was packaged makes it the perfect ice scraper for his car!

| The Art of Memory by Frances A. Yates |
|
This book explores the Art of Memory far more deeply than simply the techniques used for memory improvement alone. The tale begins with a description of Simonides' loci method of mnemonics. Yates' book is very well researched and contains a wealth of information about the history of this subject which is a page-turner for anyone with an interest in this area. It was described by one reviewer as "a thought-provoking journey with patient reflection."
