I strongly recommend David Butlers new book Speed Reading with the Right Brain as one of the most innovate new approaches to speed reading on the market today. For the past year, Dave and I have discussed in email exchanges crucial issues about reading comprehension and the history of speed reading instructions. Daves unique approach emphasizes the importance of reading with the right side of the brain which helps the reader quickly comprehend a text by converting groups of words into images and concepts.

It is amazing to me that so much could have been written in so many years since Evelyn Wood about speed reading and no one came up with the idea of speed comprehension. All the other programs emphasize rapid eye movement over text, promising that comprehension would follow, which it usually didnt. The concept of focusing on comprehension first has been the missing link.

Speed Reading with the Right Brain, is a must read for peoples interested in improving their reading comprehension and speed.

In the last few thousand years, reading has gone from a mystical ability of the few, to a way of experiencing the world beyond peoples local existence, to a method of self-improvement. But with todays accelerating pace of information, reading has truly become an essential survival skill.

Speed Reading with the Right Brain demonstrates how to improve your reading by thinking conceptually , which means thinking about what things really are rather than just their name. This is a powerful method for improving this most important factor in education and success.

All skills require practice, but some practice is more effective than others. This very unique method of displaying text makes learning to read faster so much easier.
