This review is from: Read & Grow Rich: How the Hidden Power of Reading Can Make You Richer in All Areas of Your Life? (Paperback)

A wealthy friend of mine turned me on to this book because it summarized his thoughts on reading. Everything we read changes our outlook on life. Burke Hedges talks about how reading changed his life and how it has changed the lives of hundreds of people like: Ophra Winfrey, J.W. Marriott, Wendy's Restaurant Owner - Dave Thomas and others.

Learn more about the Readers & the Read Nots Vs. The Have's & Have Nots in Chapter 5. What we read is as important as reading itself. This is a book for those who want to learn how to read and change their life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good "No-Holds Barred" approach to why one needs to read, June 24, 2000

This review is from: Read & Grow Rich: How the Hidden Power of Reading Can Make You Richer in All Areas of Your Life? (Paperback)

The author talks about the importance of reading, and how it differs from simply watching TV or listening to the radio. Straight forward approach, with individual human examples, of how a person's life can change for the better by reading.

There is also an interesting comparison (that may even be eye-opening) between the people who choose to read and the people who know how to read and choose not to.
