A Mind for Numbers and its wildly popular online companion course “Learning How to Learn” have encouraged more than two million students of all ages from around the world to master subjects with which they once struggle.

This book explains: · Why sometimes letting your mind wander is an important part of the learning process · How to avoid “rut think” in order to think laterally · Why having a poor memory can be a good thing · The value of metaphors in developing understanding · A simple, yet powerful, way to stop procrastinating Filled with illustrations, application questions and exercises, this book makes learning easy and fun.
