How to Think Like Sherlock by Daniel Smith

• Sherlock Holmes is known as the master of detection. He made his deductions from what he saw around him. In the words of Sherlock, most deduction is just "elementary, my dear Watson." In How to Think Like Sherlock, you will learn how to enhance the powers of your observation.
• Using your memory, reason and inference, just like the world-famous detective Sherlock, you will be introduced to a range of latest techniques and theories related to this subject. Shirt cuffs, trouser hems, a scuff of shoe dirt, will never mean the same again after you understand the scope for inference from such tiny details.
• You will learn about techniques like Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), body language, speed reading, data mining, mapping your memory and a host of other ways to make the world around you simpler and easily understood.
• With numerous quotes, case studies and trivia from writer Arthur Conan Doyle of the original Sherlock Holmes books, How to Think Like Sherlock also includes a series of tasks and games. The first edition of How to Think Like Sherlock was published by Manjul in 2014. It is available as a paperback.
