Pros & Cons
Pros
It teaches you lil techniques that might sound silly, but when you apply them and understand the method behind the madness it actually saves you problems memorizing. Cal newport is not big in mnemonics for some reason, but he writes very good books.
Cons
I find this method really miningless for exams purposes. This book is useless!
Highlights
Quality

But with that said buy this book i don’t think you will be disappointed
Competitiveness
It has a general aplication being not specific to any type of knowledge
