Interesting and easy to read. Made me wonder if there were ways to learn math more effectively.

The most interesting thing about the memory feats the author describes with an insider's view is that not too long ago, these kinds of memory feats were much less unusual among the educated classes. It is nice to think that with a bit of self-application anyone could train themselves to learn the trick of memorizing long digit strings and poetry. I think this story might make an entertaining film, given the characters described.
