Using your method, how would you go about Ankifying a whole non-fiction book?

Hi Greg, thanks for the comment. Hmm, I think it depends on whether you’re trying to memorize the entire book word for word, or just the concepts in each chapter.

I would probably do this:

- Create images for every chapter title

- Create images for every idea covered in each chapter (so multiple images per chapter)

- and depending on the length of the book, maybe even create an image for each page

This should be doable in a few hundred images, again depending on the length of the book.

Hopefully that makes sense!

Sounds good. I guess it depends on the structure of the book. It would probably also be beneficial to create a aesthetic theme for the book and sub-themes for each chapter.

Yes that’s a good idea as well - depending on the book, you can probably come up with a different aesthetic theme for each chapter. In general, the more different you can make the items from each other, the better.
