In 'Moonwalking with Einstein', Foer draws on research, the cultural history of memory and the techniques of 'mental atheletes' to transform the understanding of human remembering. He learned the ancient methods used by Cicero and Medieval scholars. He met amnesiacs, neuroscientists and savants - including a man who claims to have memorized more than nine thousand books. In doing so, he intends to reveal the hidden impact of memory on life, and shows how we can all improve our memories.
