Story
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes tales are rightly ranked among the seminal works of mystery and detective fiction. Included in this collection are all four full-length Holmes novels and more than forty short masterpieces - from the inaugural adventure A Study in Scarlet to timeless favorites like “The Speckled Band” and more. At the center of each stands the iconic figure of Holmes - brilliant, eccentric, and capable of amazing feats of deductive reasoning.

I decided to listen through these stories, and now I see why Sherlock Holmes is such a beloved character! The stories portray a profoundly gifted genius who applies his intellect and skills toward the detection of crime. If any listener (or reader) is familiar with the late Jim Diamond's "Mega Genius" lectures, You will see that his "Genius Formula" is applied in various ways throughout these stories. They were.very well written by the author, who undoubtedly was very intelligent himself, and had a keen insight for how intelligence might manifest itself toward the detection of crime.
I love the narrator's application or various voices, and he did quite well in all of them. I especially liked his depiction of an old "city boy" American accent at times in his narrations, an accent which I am surprised he portrayed so well, as such an accent is now extinct to the world. We'll done!

Story
You are smarter than you think. In fact, your subconscious holds the same mental powers as some of the greatest minds in history. Mind development pioneer Dr. Win Wenger noticed a clear pattern. He found that geniuses are little more than ordinary people who have stumbled upon some knack or technique for widening their channels of attention. New research suggests that the superior achievements of famous thinkers may have been more the result of mental conditioning than genetic superiority. Now, with The Einstein Factor, you can learn to condition your mind in the same way.

A wonderful set of practices that can be taken up and performed, along with your daily routine, in order to access and grow your own intelligence. Win devoted his life to this kind of research, and I think he did a pretty good job at boiling it down so that the rest of us could understand it all, and begin to walk in this path of attempting to access and increase our own intelligence. Bravo!

All I can say, is Well Done, Ramon Campayo!!!! This book is well Put together, and it is obvious that the author has put in a ton of time, effort and dedication to researching, organizing, and compiling this material for the rest of us. This is a great resource, with tons of very practical and useful information that can benefit many a student and individual researchers. Bravo!
