Every electronic product is created with a unique User Manual; to every newborn there’s no (human brain) User Manual. The newborn brain is left to nature (self-use and self-learn). Multitudes today rely heavily on “search engines” as opposed to their innate brain power companion for knowledge registration, retention and recall habit established at the outset. Yet the current educational system still requires the student to remember lessons taught through graded examinations, eventually graduating with or without honors or is a drop-out. Nonetheless, drop-out or graduate shall excel with brain power companionship. Reading and writing (at least in a major language) is essential. A superb means to learning, unlearning and relearning, not intended to over emphasize its benefits; realizing that knowledge may be gained through other practical means. To be classified as “functionally literate” by the UN, you will need to read at least 400 words per minute with 70%-80% comprehension. Being able to read is insufficient unless qualifying as functionally literate and this may be achieved through training in “speed reading”. This is Series 5 with the first entitled Nonpareil Learning Techniques. May you be blessed and be a blessing through these series of e-books produced and presented by The Nonpareil Program.

An extraordinary memoir by Iris Origo, who chronicled political life in A Chill in the Air and War in Val d'Orcia, and now turns inward to describe her own family, the work of writing, and the transcience of memory. Images and Shadows, Iris Origo’s autobiographical account of her early life, is as perceptive and humane and beautifully written as her celebrated memoir War in Val d’Orcia. Origo’s father came from an old and moneyed American family, her mother was the daughter of an Irish peer, and Iris grew up in the most privileged of circumstances. Her father died of tuberculosis when he was only thirty, and her mother moved to Fiesole, Italy, where she and Iris developed a close friendship with the great connoisseur and art historian Bernard Berenson. Later, Origo and her Italian husband transformed a desolate and deforested Tuscan property into a flourishing estate, and it was there that she discovered her true calling as a writer. In Images and Shadows, Origo paints portraits of her shy, loving father and her headstrong mother, and describes beloved places, the books that formed her sensibility, and how she grew up and made her way in the world. She reflects on the pleasures and challenges of writing and evokes the persistence and fragility of memory. Images and Shadows is an autobiography that is as thoughtful as it is profoundly touching.

A survey of life on earth, in all its variety and pagentry, by a very annoyed humorist. From early man, the Neanderthal, Cro-Magnon, to irascible observations on mankind and the animal kingdom today (including "Birds I Could Do Without"), Will Cuppy, a perennially perturbed hermit, is your guide in these are very funny essays. For eight years, from 1921 to 1929, Will Cuppy lived alone on Jones Island, off Long Island's South Shore. From that outpost, he gained a reputation for his factual but funny magazine articles and wrote the book, How to be a Hermit, his first bestseller. His last, The Decline and Fall of Practically Everybody, was left unfinished after Cuppy's death in 1949 and has become a classic of American humor. In between (among other titles) was this very funny collection. First published in 1931, the subjects include "What I Hate About Spring," "Awful Mammals," and "Why Be a Rhinoceros?" Great for anyone who loves classic American humor.

A survey of the animal kingdom in which the nocturnal and tunneling wombat is awarded the greatest praise. Will Cuppy was something like the Larry David of the mid-20th century. From his perch as a staff writer at The New Yorker, Cuppy observed the world and found a great deal that annoyed him. This collection of essays on animals includes "Birds Who Can't Even Fly," "Optional Insects," "Octopuses and Those Things", and "How to Swat a Fly," which codifies the essentials in ten hilarious principles. And three essays on wombats. Perfect reading for the perplexed, befuddled, and perpetually irritated.

Nonetheless, drop-out or graduate shall excel with brain power companionship. Memory aids are naturally within everyone (born with) as is with conscious observation, association, etc. And of course so is mind collaboration as in making the familiar unfamiliar and vice versa... It’s the question of whether we use rightly these innate aids that’s within us or unknowingly used wrongly. With memory tools, these are created either by our-self or by others and applied to help us in memory enhancement. It is wise to cause synergy in and through both memory aids and tools as often as possible that will ease data into reliable remembering for registration, retention and recall; but not neglecting “FoR”. (Hosea 4:6, KJV reads, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge,...”). This is Series 4 with the first entitled Nonpareil Learning Techniques.

Among the multifaceted characters whose lives interlock are Alejandro, a once-prominent literary critic fallen into disfavor; his estranged wife, Mercedes, whom he suspects of openly conducting an affair with an American writer; Bonny, the writer's runaway daughter, who is made to witness a calamitous sequence of events that culminates in murder; Preston, an American industrialist, and his sexually frustrated wife, Rita; and the unscrupulous art dealer Pech. As the lives of these people press together, as they buckle and collapse, the novel holds up a mirror to a moment in which we lived--the end of a millennium, of an era-- and to the perils, temptations, and hysteria that lie just below the surface.

"I was nineteen years old, still soft at the edges, but with a confident belief in good fortune. I carried a small rolled-up tent, a violin in a blanket, a change of clothes, a tin of treacle biscuits, and some cheese. I was excited, vain-glorious, knowing I had far to go; but not, as yet, how far." Despite this romantic and optimistic opening, what Lee finds is the most primitive and feudal country in Europe, a peninsula untouched by the modern world, a land of labor without dignity, a church devoid of compassion, and a country ripe for revolutionary change.
