Hi everyone.
I once said that I will be starting to learn PR again after I finish my exam.However,there will be another 3 weeks more for me to finish the exam.

I discover that the english version of PR book is really far better than any translated book.I have the third version of the PRWMS book.Just by glance I found a small column about how to form a purpose which translated version of the book doesn't have.

Recently I have a lot of e-books.I plan to PR all of them after exam and also after I relearn the PR steps.Question:Does anybody know how to adjust the time of PR e-books in front of a computer screen without tiring our eyes too much?I want to PR the books but I found that just half an hour I felt that my eyes are very tired and could not focus anymore.

There are some books that I currently have:

Tony Buzan-Mind Map Book
Tony Buzan-Speed Memory
Tony Buzan-Use Your Head(or Use your Memory I forgot)
Harry Lorayne-How to develop a super power memory(something like this)
Evelyn Wood's book
Paul-PRWMS 3rd edition
and actually a lot more books regarding memory

Has anybody known these books?Any recommendation?

P/S:For those who are capable of reading chinese,I just found a website that actually illustrates how he successfully PR.There are quite a few post i did in research showing a lot of memory methods such as one method in Japan that is quite famous(I suppose is photographic memory),still I found one post that says that PR is the easiest to learn among all other methods.Cheers PR!

Hi Elison,

I warmly recommend Harry Lorayne's books, a long time ago when I was 10 years I read "How to develop a super power memory", and while I don't have a super power memory, I have at least a fairly good memory, especially when I use his methods. You may also take a look at his newer memory books based on the same technique, but feeling more modern. The book I read is from the 60's, so while the technique is more or less the same, it now feels a bit out fashioned.

Tony Buzan's books are also good, I have them, but haven't found time to read them thouroghly yet.

Good luck!

Nope Wangkai,I am from Malaysia.
I happened to step on 2 China Sina Blog Users that explain about photoreading.They use the PR process quite well,and they are able to produce own audio in learning PR in chinese,hoping to share PR to other people.I also found quite some websites from China regarding memory technique and the websites are pretty good too.

By one glance I found that majority memory books make use of the peg system.I think I found peg system in Harry's book too.

Have you mastered PR?

Yes, most memory books use the peg system, but I think Harry was one of the first to write a book of it in "modern" time. I guess there are other good memory books too, but personally I like Harry's books a lot.

And nop, I've not learned to PR yet, but I'm for sure going to later on.

i tried to learn harry's memory systems before;i,e. without the PRing..but i found it was a little tricky,not hard.
but after i learnt PRing i thought that if i were to learn harry's memory sytems as well along with Pring ,then it would make a powerful fusion..so i Phtoread harry lorayne's book,the next day i started activating it, using SR and dip..i immediately found out that it was easier to understand,and listening to harry's train of thought,to zero in on his point of view..and i also got many inner signals guiding me to do certain things to make it more effective...Photoreading and Harry's memory sytems would indeed make a powerful Duo.

If you want to be a successful learner.

Always start with the beginners mind and start and step one.
