Webb, Terry Wyler with Douglas Webb.  Accelerated Learning with Music: A Trainers Manual. Norcross, GA: Accelerated Learning Systems, 1990.

Dr. Georgi Lozanov, author of 'Suggestopedia,' a new teaching method especially suitable for learning languages and scientific data, discovered that the acquisition and retention of information could be accelerated and improved if during the memorization process a certain type of music was played. This manual lists the composers and their works that proved especially suitable for the purpose, provides brief biographies, explains how the method works, and how barriers to learning can be overcome, especially in the beginning.

Wenger, Win and Richard Poe. The Einstein Factor: A Proven New Method for Increasing Your Intelligence. Rocklin, CA: Prima Publishing, 1996.

The authors argue that it is a well-known fact that human intelligence can be significantly improved even if only for a short duration, or until the 'fade-out effect' sets in. To make this improvement permanent is the subject of this book. They call this innovative technique the 'Einstein Factor'  and the individual components 'Image Streaming', 'Photo Reading', 'Freenoting,' and 'Borrowed Genius.' The ultimate goal is not only to improve your IQ, but 'elevating your overall brainpower and enhancing memory, creativity, reading speed, specific talents, and general brain health' through the power of accelerative learning as developed in 'Project Renaissance.'
