My reading speed is already noticeably faster without a loss in comprehension. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to pick up their reading pace. ( ) over the counter psychology I hate to be so negative, but honestly this is the worst psychology books I have ever read. If you're in to psychology that is not backed by research, then you might like this one because there isn't even a References page anywhere to be found in this book. If we look at the many assumptions the author makes (e.g., getting rid of subvocalizing) and compare with the scientific literature, one realizes that the fast majority of claims in this book are just dead wrong. Anyone interested in the topic should read Rayner and colleagues' 2016 lit review article on speed reading. They basically argue that speed reading training is highly suspect and not backed by rigorous science. Of course the author of this book is mixing her pseudoscience with business which is always a bad idea. Save your money and do not waste your time on this book. Actually, as I took a speed-reading class during my school years, I would only give this book a solid 4. As for downsides, the book doesn't mention Schulte tables or dual n-back, which are crucial to improve periferal vision performance or sharpen memory. However, after I went through first 3 chapter-days, I began reading much faster. Applying the dogfooding principle, I finished the book in 2 sessions on Friday evening and Saturday. Did I start reading faster? Yes. Did I do it in under 10 days? Yes. Will it help me with the upcoming The Art of Electronics "battle"? We'll see. P.S. And yes, don't use fingers as pacers on tablets. Go for the business cards. This book gave plenty of techniques on how we can read faster. The best thing about this book is that it doesn't require you to subscribe to any technique, but to try out different techniques to see which ones suit you better. For a truly different experience in speed reading, try reading Photoreading. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
