Mapping is new! [Posted on 2006-04-16] I wanted to learn mapping to help me with my career choices as I worked with a resume writer and career coach (http://www.callfranklyspeaking.com). This book really helped me understand the concept and apply not just to a job change, but to my new job and mapping out the possibilities for my department. Easy to learn!
Very best to learn and use the MindMap [Posted on 2007-05-07] Very good book, and very good service from amazon
Opened my eyes [Posted on 2007-05-23] Being an artistic and visual person, I always had trouble effectively outlining ideas. This solved the problem. For me it works.
Who has the time? [Posted on 2007-09-22] I bought this book based on the 10 positive reviews it received. Unfortunately, my money would have been best spent on a Tony Buzan book. MAPPING INNER SPACE has serious downfalls. Mainly, all the mindmaps in the book are rich in color with excellent drawn pictures...how could I even attempt to duplicate this? Though the author states several times that drawing perfectly isn't required, her own examples demonstrate that her drawing skills are very superior. Also, the use of different colors made her mind maps frameable...how would have time during a meeting to draw such elaborate pictures? I would highly recommend that you buy one of Tony Buzan's earlier books on this subject...you won't feel so intimidated when you read them.
An Excellent Resource for Teachers [Posted on 2008-04-29] As a teacher, I found this book invaluable. It offers numerous nontraditional and visual ways of presenting data, and can be used in any academic subject.
Nancy Margulies shows her creativity in other ways. She presents her ideas themselves in map form, and even suggests nontraditional resumes that summarize one's qualification in terms of maps. She includes simple sketches that can be used in maps, and these sketches, according to her, do not require artistic talent to draw.
Margulies stresses the fact that there is no right or wrong way to present information in these maps. And, of course, one has to practice mapping ideas in order to become comfortable doing so.
