"I recommend this book. After reading and practicing it, I increased my reading speed by a factor of about four. My comprehension also increased significantly. Reading this book actually saves you time and allows you to enjoy life with more confidence."
"Before I had my first experience in mindfulness meditation, I was crazy about mind developing in another way already. You can call it a worldly aspect of it. I was very much into books about brain development, memory enhancement and stuff. Not that it worked for me! I have noticed, especially after my numerous retreats, that my brain does decline with age. But at least I'm trying! Well, this book is from my pre-meditation day, and now and then I still pick it up to read for fun, and I use it to teach my graduate school class also. According to this book's stat, your fastest reading speed is when you're in grad school! So, you'd better make the most of it if you're in one now! hee hee hee Anyway, it especially helps if your first language is not English, just like me. In the world where time is the most precious commodity, anyone can benefit from a well-written book like this one. It has exercise at the end of each chapter where you can time yourself and calculate your score. You'll be surprised that, with each technique learned, your speed would really improve! But if you ask me now, it has a lot to do with mindfulness and your ability to maintain that mindfulness throughout your reading session. Of course the ability to master higher level of English vocabulary would not hurt either and this book also provides you some tips on that. A comprehensive book for anyone who would like to improve their skills in life in general."
