The Memory Book, by Jerry Lucas and Harry Lorayne
This is a classic. I was inspired to re-read it by reading a news article in Wired magazines online news about a contest for memory experts. I've read a few books on this in the past, and probably was past due to revisit the subject (as I am being reminded of being forgetful....). So - for my amusement I'm working on memorizing a lot of digits of PI. I'm only up to 150 or so right now... If you want to try, download my new program "EasyAsPI" to practice! The current version lets you do over 1000 digits!
