Book Reviews of Learn More Now: 10 Simple Steps to Learning Better, Smarter, and Faster
Book Review: Bad beyond comprehension
Summary: 1 Stars
I was assigned this as my text book for a college course (I %$#@ you not). It is very nearly offensive to read. It is based on fallacious science and written in broken English by a woman who admits to having absolutely no higher educational credentials whatsoever. Which is especially humorous given that she presumes to explain brain chemistry to us, using research which has not been peer reviewed in ways that even the researchers never intended it to be interpreted (I'm sorry, my spleen can't think, and there is no scientific basis for that assertion [and you think I'm kidding about that, but she actually asserts that our organs, joints, and muscles can think in the most literal sense]).
Her methods range from hokey to downright ridiculous, leaving one's intellect offended and impugned by the experience. Anyone who has the misfortune to be assigned this as a text book, you have my deepest sympathy. Anyone who buys this of their own independent will, you have less of it, but still enough to fill the bowels of #$%&. Anyone who buys it and actually thinks it valuable, you have my sincerest scorn. I am at first tempted to feel bad for you, too, but at a certain point you deserve your fate as a punishment for a level of criminal stupidity which rivals even that of the writer (at least she managed to get people to give her money for her stupidity, after all - she gets credit for that).
