SCIENTIFIC STUDIES HAVE shown that as we age our ability to recall new faces and names decreases. For many people, the decline begins in their 40's. The good news, though, is that studies also show memory for names and faces can improve with training, no matter how old we are.

Million Dollar Memory for Names & Faces offers a proven method for recalling names and faces and for heightening your awareness and observation skills. It can be applied to the fight between the forces of good and evil in the war on crime and terrorism. This book is about fighting the good fight to preserve and strengthen the culture of America. It's about making a conscious decision to improve certain intellectual skills we're born with for the purpose of helping society become a safer place to live. We really can help turn back the clock to the time when we felt safe in our own neighborhood, when we could feel secure walking on a dimly lit street, when children played in the front yard without fear and parents tucked them into bed at night knowing their bright faces would be at the breakfast table in the morning.

A fundamental purpose of this book is to improve our ability to detect and stop crime and terrorism, because both are against our moral code and a threat to our nation. On any level, crime and terrorism interfere with our feelings of safety and security for our families and society.

Million Dollar Memory for Names & Faces gives you the skills to remember new and recent acquaintances and recognize terrorists and career criminals who repeatedly commit crimes as a source of income or to support a drug habit. If you've ever looked into the eyes of evil as a crimevictim or know someone who has, you know why this book is important. If you haven't, read below as Detective Sergeant George Wick, a 25–year veteran of law enforcement, describes career criminals:

"Most career criminals are just plain lazy, believe they are smarter than the police, and feel that all other people are stupid and should be taken advantage of. Most of the criminals who prey on the elderly and children do so because they are defenseless and are perceived as easy targets. All the people who commit the most heinous crimes are just evil. They try to use insanity as a defense, and the general public wants to believe them. The public doesn't want to believe that one human being could do something so horrible to another human being, especially to childrenor their own family members."

He ends by saying:

"I have met many of these criminals and it is clear to me that they are pure evil. It is my strong belief in God that motivates me to continue doing my job of attempting to identify, capture, arrest and convict these people, thereby removing them from our society before they cause any more pain and suffering to innocent victims. I pray that I can make a difference."

Gaining face recognition skills is the first proactive step we can take to help police take criminals off the streets.Recognizing criminal faces is primary in identifying, capturing and removing these people from our society. If we all pitch in to use our eyes, observation skills, intuition and memory, we can achieve the goal sooner. Similarly, we can use our brainpower and our memory to help authorities find terrorists. We all can make a difference.

But we shouldn't stop there. We should take these skills to another level by helping to find the missing children. In addition, we can improve our own life by learning how to remember names and faces, mastering one of the best social skills.

The Missing Children

Imagine the terror and confusion parents must feel when their child has been abducted. Then try to imagine how the child feels. Fear and anxious thoughts race through the child's heart and mind: "When will I see Mommy or Daddy again? Why is this person hurting me? What did I do that was so bad? How can I get away from this mean person? Where is this person taking me? I miss my Mommy and Daddy."

That child's destiny depends on the answers to these questions: What will happenduring the ordeal? Who will help? Who will suspect that a person seen with the child in public isn't actually the child's parent and sees that something is wrong? Who will recognize the child as one of the missing?
