Part I: Mind Mapping: The Swiss Army Knife for the Brain

In this part you find out why it’s so important to visualise thoughts and information and why you shouldn’t merely write them down in lists or as running text. When you’ve explored the basic advantages of visualising information and how they can be applied, I explain the fundamental rules for generating Mind Maps. Chapter 3 is central to all subsequent chapters in the book. After you’ve assimilated these rules, you may be wondering why you need them. Why Mind Mapping works as it does and how Mind Mapping has come about I explain in the last chapter of Part I.
