Synopsis

“Speed Reading Techniques: Practical ways to improve reading speed and increase comprehension, read faster and understand more”, is an all-encompassing guide on reading quickly and understanding all that you read.

The book is sure to allow the reader to develop the speed reading and comprehension skills they need or desire. Aimed at a wide audience of varying reading skill levels, Speed Reading Techniques: Practical Ways to Improve Reading Speed and Increase Comprehension, Read Faster and Understand More enables the novice, less-experienced reader, to improve their overall reading speed and comprehension, allowing them to enjoy reading and perhaps even develop a love for the hobby. More advanced readers such as academics who find this book will enable them to further increase their reading rate and overall retention of the content read. In addition to general readers and academics, the book provides a guide on reading a multitude of literary styles including fiction, newspapers, and technical manuals. With a host of tips and tricks as well as daily practices and a place to record your progress, Speed Reading Techniques is everything anyone needs to be a better reader and have fun doing it.

This begins with a basic introduction to speed reading, what it is and why it is helpful or even necessary to some. Everyone is a potential speed reader and one of the first things the book tackles is what holds you back from reading quickly and retaining all the information that you have read. Some challenges to speed reading include, but are not limited to regression, whereby the reader goes back and reads the same word or paragraph over and over again. Subvocalization is another challenge that is addressed; explaining why we read under our breath or with moving lips and how to stop doing just that. It further addresses the physical factors involved in reading such as our focal range, how much our eyes can take in at one time, teaching the reader how to increase this range and be able to see more at once. In order to address all of these challenges, the book provides us with multiple corrective practices, assisting the reader in increasing their reading rate overall as well as their comprehension and content retention rate. 

Not all literature is created equal, and as such, different literary styles require different methods for maximum reading speed, comprehension, and content retention. We focus on some of the most commonly encountered reading material including newspapers and technical and scientific guides, providing specific methods for reading each most effectively.
