I came across Learn More, Study Less where you can buy a 200+ pages eBook but there is also a short free preview. I got curious and have read the short version.
Scott Young describes a concept called Holistic Learning which means putting knowledge in context. Instead of stuffing your brain with information you create a web of associations since that is how the brain works best. I like this concept, it is similar to how I learn.
The preview has a brief look at flow-based notetaking which to me looks like a mix of mindmapping (which I like and use) and ordinary notes. This is part of the holistic learning, use associations when taking notes.
The preview also includes one productivity tip, nuke procrastination. This tip is similar to Task management my way - pen and paper.
The book includes the tale of The barometer problem as an example of knowledge used in creative ways.
