I read ii several years ago after listening to a long interview on radio. IIRC he generalized somewhat too much about the rules he extrapolated which might work for consultant surgeons or pilots but m...
I think their mother tongue is German. IIRC it cost me twenty dollars last year after the trial period ended. Also if IIRC they've made a million or two or more from it, mainly sales for the Mac versi...
RIP Tony Buzan

He did a lot for creatives doing brainstorming everywhere by promoting mindmaps.
Finally gone to the big mindmap in the clouds.
