Excellent Resource,
By Dan N (San Antonio, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 10 Days to Faster Reading (Paperback)
I just finished this book and it was fantastic help to my reading speed. I am a physician who always has a stack of reading, and this book deals not only with reading the stack faster, but also managing the stack. The book has two main advantages. First, is that it is concise enough to manage and significantly improve in 10 days. Second, it has great examples to help you improve. Its hands-on approach allows you to improve quickly. I have read the other reviews about concerns with comprehension, and I have improved with my comprehension. I tend to pay more attenition to the parts of a reading that are important. My only regret is that I did not find this book while I was in school. This is a fantastic resource for students. It will not only improve your reading, but do it very quickly with less work. I have read other resources, including Stephen Berg's, and find they have approaches that you cannot learn quickly or easily as this method.

One of the top 5 must read!,
By "kathy_wong" (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 10 Days to Faster Reading (Paperback)
I worked through the 10-day program illustrated in the book. The result is amazing! With continuous practice after the program, both my reading speed and comprehension improved dramatically. The author offered many different ways to develop skills to achieve two major goals: faster reading and better comprehension. I've tried all the methods and found the ones that best fit my own needs. I am sure for those who need to read a lot everyday (especially non-fiction material) will be treasured by this simple self-training guidebook.

Incredible!,
By Adrian Gabriel Lance (Nashua, NH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 10 Days to Faster Reading (Paperback)
When I first bought this book I wasn't expecting much. It seemed unreasonable that reading speed could be increased greatly in a short period of time. I bought it anyway, however, in hopes that it might have valid suggestions to improve reading speed that I could develop over time.It was a tremedous surprise when I more than TRIPLED my reading speed in just four days! When I began I was a slow to average reader (200 WPM). After four days I was able to read at nearly 650 WPM. However, comprehension is a different story. When I read quickly I find it hard to retain information. The book assures me that with practice I will begin to retain more of what I read. I am finding that this is true. In conclusion, you should be able to learn how to read much faster (not necessarily triple your speed though) in just 10 days. But after learning how to read quickly, it will take a great deal of practice to gain the comprehension you had before.
