Kudos to the author for situating this latest edition in ourcurrent social landscape. I am constantly searching for tools to strengthen our students' learning retention. This is a grand slam!, Dr. Zakrajsek's systematic, approachable, and humorous discussion of 'the Research' makes this book both accessible and meaningful for any learner in higher education - and faculty too! He provides condensed, clear theory as well as pathways of practice for improving our learning through thought and deed. Any reader will come away with specific applications which will in turn provide profound improvements to their learning. This is a must-read for every student, regardless of previous academic success!
