In Remember It!, four-time USA Memory Champion Nelson Dellis teaches us how to make the most of our memory, using his competition-winning techniques, featuring illustrations by Adam Hayes.
Foreword by Sanjay Gupta
Throughout his research into memory theory, Nelson Dellis found existing memory improvement guides to be wanting—overcomplicated, dry, and stodgy. So he decided to write a book that is approachable and fun, centered on what people actually need to remember.
Presenting the information in a user-friendly way, Dellis offers bite-size chapters, addressing things we wish we could remember but often forget: names, grocery lists, phone numbers, where you left your keys—you name it! This fast-paced, highly illustrated tour of the inner workings of the brain makes improving your memory simple and fun.

I’ve had the opportunity to see Nelson explain his techniques, and this book really showcases not only his knowledge about memory but his ability to make memory techniques easy to learn and relatable to everyday situations.” —Award-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author Maria Shriver
