Hacking Memory Systems
Hacking Memory Systems reveals how anyone can dramatically improve their memory using techniques employed by memory champions. It argues that exceptional memory isn't an innate gift but a skill developed through structured training. The book explores mnemonic systems, delving into the psychology of memory formation and practical applications in daily life. Interestingly, memory improvement extends beyond rote memorization, enhancing cognitive functions and mental agility. The book progressively introduces mnemonic techniques, starting with memory fundamentals. It covers methods like the Method of Loci and the Major System, teaching how to memorize names, faces, and abstract information. Uniquely, the book emphasizes personalization, encouraging readers to adapt techniques to their learning styles. By synthesizing cognitive psychology research, case studies, and practical exercises, Hacking Memory Systems guides readers on a journey to unlock their cognitive potential and boost memory performance in various settings.

This book probes the complex relationship between memory and storytelling in contemporary literature. It not only examines how memory is constantly made and remade through words and stories but also explores how literary practices and imagination are shaping new concepts of memory in the 21st century. By analyzing the selected novels – Penelope Lively’s The Photograph, Tom McCarthy’s Remainder, Julian Barnes’ The Sense of an Ending and The Only Story, Kazuo Ishiguro’s Never Let Me Go, and Felicia Yap’s Yesterday – this book explores the dynamic interplay of remembering and forgetting, and redefines the relationship between fiction and memory in the 21st century.
The Elements of Computing Systems, second edition
A new and extensively revised edition of a popular textbook used in universities, coding boot camps, hacker clubs, and online courses. The best way to understand how computers work is to build one from scratch, and this textbook leads learners through twelve chapters and projects that gradually build the hardware platform and software hierarchy for a simple but powerful computer system. In the process, learners gain hands-on knowledge of hardware, architecture, operating systems, programming languages, compilers, data structures and algorithms, and software engineering. Using this constructive approach, the book introduces readers to a significant body of computer science knowledge and synthesizes key theoretical and applied techniques into one constructive framework.The outcome is known known as Nand to Tetris: a journey that starts with the most elementary logic gate, called Nand, and ends, twelve projects later, with a general-purpose computer system capable of running Tetris and any other program that comes to your mind. The first edition of this popular textbook inspired Nand to Tetris classes in many universities, coding boot camps, hacker clubs, and online course platforms. This second edition has been extensively revised. It has been restructured into two distinct parts—Part I, hardware, and Part II, software—with six projects in each part. All chapters and projects have been rewritten, with an emphasis on separating abstraction from implementation, and many new sections, figures, and examples have been added. Substantial new appendixes offer focused presentation on technical and theoretical topics.
