Getting to the perfect formula of learning with ease and retaining different lessons effectivelty has been a challenge for each educator and it is this challenge that Art of Living teachers and former IITians Khurshed Batliwala and Dinesh Ghodke have taken head on in this book.  

Khurshed, who holds a master’s degree in maths from IIT Bombay, and Dinesh, who has a BTech in metallurgy and material sciences from IIT Bombay, tell students how studying can be made into a delightful and meaningful experience rather than being a drudgery undergone just to score well in an exam. They offer techniques for easy recall and emergency studying, importance of teamwork and even on ways to overcome the pressure of getting a good job and related depression.

Why study subjects you don’t like? How to exercise and diet right to keep your brain alert? How to use mind maps to study during an emergency? The two authors distill years of learning and teaching young people into this fun, easy-to-read book.
