Book synopsis

Excerpt from Memory Manual: Explaining, in Short and Simple Lessons; A System of Aiding, Strengthening and Developing the Memory; By the Use of Which the Young, Middle-Aged or Old May the More Easily Remember Ordinary Things It may be said that Memory is the basis upon which all knowledge rests. Without Memory, edu cation, and, indeed, the whole fabric of human econ omy, would relapse into chaos. But, although this wonderful faculty is so' pre-eminenży Important, it is very seldom studied and, consequently, but little understood. The young at school or college, as well as persons of riper years, are left to make usc of their own crude devices. Following blindly their untutored instincts as to the manner in which, or the methods by which, they should impress upon the memory the more diffi cult matter they wish to remember. Every mind, it seems, whether learned or ignorant, Whether young or old, Without any outside suggestion or teaching Whatever, but Of its own spontaneous in stinct, resorts to various devices or expedients for the purpose Of impressing upon, and distinguishing in, the memory, by the agency of association, things that otherwise cannot be readily remembered, or effectually distinguished from each other. This principle of resort to the agency or assistance of association is a natural and righteous principle of the healthy humanmind; and, being so, and, moreover, being of con' stant use and application, it seems proper that the better and more effective devices or expedients for aiding the memory by assdciation should be singled out, arranged, and, as far as possible, reduced to an intelligible and practical system; so that, instead of having to grope blindly in the dark - as is the usual Course - persons may be enabled to proceed to the ap plication of the laws of association with the light and adv1sement of experience.
