"Memory-whisperer" Lynne Kelly takes the groundbreaking research shared in her best-selling book The Memory Code and reveals how anyone can put traditional memory methods into practice today to memorise anything they want. Introducing the best memory techniques humans have ever devised, she portrays the extraordinary capacity of our brains at any age and shows how memory systems provide a firm foundation of knowledge on which to build higher levels of learning.

In the past the elders had encyclopaedic memories. They could name all the animals and plants across the landscape and the stars in the sky, too. Yet most of us struggle to memorise more than a short poem. Using traditional Aboriginal Australian songlines as the key, Lynne Kelly has identified the powerful memory technique used by indigenous people around the world.

Over 500,000 years ago, a single gene mutated. It spread over time, becoming critical in the journey transforming our earliest ancestors into fully modern humans, capable of navigating the entire planet and beyond. Then just a few thousand years ago, humans gradually outsourced knowledge to writing, and we displaced art and music from the heart of learning. This is the extraordinary story of the discovery of a supergene that makes us uniquely human.

Groundbreaking anthropologist and memory champion Lynne Kelly reveals how we can use ancient and traditional mnemonic methods to enhance and expand our memory.
