It's alright!

It does help but not to the point where you want to get and it seems to make you dependable on props such as pointers to help you flow through the words.

Clear understanding about dimensions of reading, and works!

After reviewing several books about speed reading --some of them very expensive--, I found it. And I strongly recommend it. The book allows you to understand and to train separately three different dimensions of reading: - Speed, understanding and recalling.Contrasting with another "speed reading...

Practical, sound advice

I'll start off by saying that if you want to become a proficient speed reader, it takes work and effort. Having said this, Moidel's book is the way to go about it. The book outlines the most common hindrances to speed reading and then illustrates how to conquer them. Within an hour I doubled my...

It's hard work...but probably worth it

Yes, you will increase your reading speed/skills with this book, but be prepared for some hard work. The author asks that you do the exercises for 6 weeks, about an hour a day. This can be very tiring since you're doing the same set of exercises over and over and over....Unfortunately, there's no...

My first and last speed reading book.

This book is great even for people that do not want to speed read and just want to improve on their reading a little. It describes everything that slows down reading and how to get past it. I was very surprised at the size of this book and thought I might have wasted my money. After reading just...

Gets to the point and works!

I'm still in the practice stage, but this book has helped me triple my reading speed in a short time. The nice thing is it is a short book and you can get going quickly. A must read for people living in this new "information overload" society.

Excellent book for speed reading

Among all the speed reading books, I think this book is one of the best. It's definitely works for me because it's simple and concise. All you need to do is follow the steps that the book said and practice as often as you can. I was a 212 word per minute reader with 60% comprehension skill,...
