A surprisingly simple way for students to master any subject--based on one of the world's most popular online courses and the bestselling book A Mind for Numbers. This book reveals how to make the most of time spent studying, explaining why sometimes letting your mind wander is an important part of the learning process, how to avoid "rut think" in order to think outside the box, why having a poor memory can be a good thing, and the value of metaphors in developing understanding. Filled with illustrations, application questions, and exercises, this book makes learning easy and fun.
