Dr Oakley also wrote "A Mind for Numbers", which is essentially this course in text form. The book is great as a a basis for the theory of learning, and dives into the same content (diffuse vs focused thinking, skimming chapters before reading etc.).
I find having a text reference with dedicated time makes me learn more, so if you're interested in the course you'd probably also love the book.
- johnvonneumann 9y agoGot this at home, bought it whilst doing the course a couple of years ago, I've been planning to get around to reading it, I'm gonna bump it up to my next up after I'm finished with "It".
- ukyrgf 9y agoAh! I bought this book and loved it, but couldn't remember how on earth it got recommended to me. Now I recall reading up on this course and deciding to try the book instead (video courses tend to waste too much time saying what you're about to learn, barely expanding on it, and then reviewing what you just learned).
