Tony Buzan: Has anyone here found his books helpful for them?

[shawsinio]

Hi all,

I've been looking at a few of the Tony Buzan books such as 'Use your head', they do seem to get some good reviews on places like amazon, but I'm wondering if anybody here has found them particularly useful? The description of them seems pretty over the top, and that reading the book will change your life! So how far does this claim sit from reality?

I have read several Tony Buzan books over the years. I do not find his writing style to my taste. Which books have you been looking at?

Mind maps are a great way of planning and very useful for preparing for exams/presentations etc, but life changing? No.

There's probably a lot more to his books, but that's all that stuck with me.
