This book really brought to focus the need to listen to others when they are doing thier work. Since reading this book I have really started to listen to my daughter when she reads and does her work and I must say I was able to bring her back to those words she skipped and when we went through it together, she understood it better. This is what we know but do not practice. Great reading!

I wish I had been given this book before I started college - it would have made my studies much easier.

This book covers the basic technology of successful study.

Did you ever get to the bottom of a page and realize you don't know what you just read?

Have you ever gotten headaches or stomaches while studying?

Have you ever felt frustrated by study materials?

Did you ever just want to throw a textbook away and quit the class?

I, like probably most everybody, have experienced all these things. This little book explains what EXACTLY happens to cause these different phenomenon. Not only does it explain the cause, but it gives very simple - VERY simple - ways to handle them!

I use these study techniques with my children. My 12-year-old just read the whole set of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and is now reading "Runaway Jury" - not something most 12-year-old kids can do. He's been reading high school science books for a few years now, and he uses these techniques himself in his study.

This study technology makes it possible for anyone able to read to be able to read anything. Legal documents, scientific texts, whatever -- if you use the techniques as laid out in this book, you can learn anything.

I got this lil pamphlet thing from this yellow tent in my city.

Guess what: I CAN FIALY UNDERSTAND PHYISICS! Although my teachers and family dis the guy who wrote this book, the book kicks ass all the same. The idea of clearing words up while studying is SOOOOO GOD DAM TRUE! Just try it out! There is no psychobabble about brains and nerve pulses, just 3 study steps. You really can conquer any subject by applying the oh-so-simple techniques outlined.

The reason I never liked physics and got 'bored' or 'wooden' was through no pictures in the school text book. I now draw a diagram for every concept in all my lessons and clear up EVERY word I don't understand in English class.

I really really recommend you get dis book.

Unlike the "how to study" course I took my first semester in college, this book actually covers basics of learning that EVERYONE runs into, whether they are an engineer, or writer, or artist.

It breaks down basic barriers to learning and explains clearly how to overcome each one.

This is not dry theory - it's practical application that the student APPLIES. I have gotten SO much out of this material already!

Imangine reading a book, and forgetting what you had just read?
Or trying to "get" what the author was saying, or falling asleep after reading a book. This happens all to often. It's observable it all schools, and in most everyone, reading almost anything.
I grew up knowing this technology, and recently starting fully using it in my everyday life.
I used it to get to new heights, in playing chess. I always wanted to be a good chess player, but felt frustrated by the many books, and what-not out there, that seemed over my head, or too confusing. Finding the right chess book, led me to owning almost 300 books! and still not getting better.
I recently went back, and used this study tech, on a piticular tough chess book, and to my amazement, I learned something! and still remember it to this day. Now i'm ready to get through the whole book, and get to new heights in chess.
With this data by Mr Hubbard, anyone can learn what ever they set out to!
