- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This books simplifiles the best methods to read a book effecientlly. It describes the way you should take notes during your reading, as well the right procedure you should follow when reading. There are specific outlines along the book that helps to clarify this methos and how to read. I also bring some important facts to the reading as concentration and lack of focus which compromises who reads.
The pre-read method helped me to see the book more quickly to gather the main idea. The SQ3R scheme that the author describes thoughout the book is definily importante to improve your reading ability and comprehension quality.2 people found this helpful
