informative guide!!!

Speed reading is a skill that comes with practice and this book taught me about npn-vocalization, the first speed reading technique you need to learn involves being able to listen. I have heard people say before that it was possible, but with Nathan's help, I really have been able to get it working.You will naturally be faster in reading as well
Thank you very much!
I recommend it !!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED....

As one prominent benefit of speed, reading is its gets a much imagination and this book includes a huge quantity about what speed reading is completely about. A speed reader has lots of support relate to the normal or late reader, they can make big quantity of cash being a fast reader, Model an agent who read a myriad of emails quickly in a short span of time will be served first compare to slow employee, and there are a lot more features discussed in this single book of Wakefield. Happy of this book are perfect with another design book I read on speed reading, should a glance at yourself so you will learn what I am reading about, highly advisable read.

Taught nothing

I’m not really sure what I expected, probably how to actually speed read. Didn’t happen except to tell us to group words together, don’t sound out in your head, and follow with a pencil. In a nutshell, that’s it. I guess I will try that and practice it, but it’s a weak book.

Waste of Time

if i could give this less then 1 star i would. this book was a complete waste of time. the entire book was basically a summary of speed-reading and its benefits. I have gone to a speed reading class and was hoping this book would be a refresher for some of those concepts and i was utterly disappointed. Do not waste your time or money on this. it does not get in depth enough to help you increase your speed and comprehension; it is more of a brief overview.

Not a book on how to speed read

This book tells you to exercise more, eat right, and explains why reading is important. There was hardly a discussion on any techniques. There was a brief description of what the techniques are, but not how to put them into practice.
