"Whether you're studying for an exam, making your way through an instructional manual on the job, keeping up with work-related magazines and newspaper articles, or just coping with everyday situations in life, reading often makes the difference between success and failure. But it isn't how fast you read that's important. It's how well you understand what you read and how much of it you remember." "In these pages you'll find easy-to-use techniques to help you remember more of what you read than you ever thought possible." "Read Better, Remember More focuses on understanding and remembering what you read - not just on reading faster; emphasizes real-world materials - textbooks, manuals, reports, memos, newspapers, and magazines; gives you simple step-by-step techniques that you can use every time you read; and provides lots of practice exercises - and answers."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
