Knight’s book is helpful, informative, and fun to read. He provides practical way to increase reading speed, but he does not see it as the ultimate solution to reading. He recognizes the need for comprehension by providing multiple experiences on how to retain information.

Read on student recommendation. This may be helpful to less experienced readers, but I already do a lot of the stuff (chunk reading, visualizing), so it was pointless to me. Also, it felt like it was trying to sell me stuff the entire book

A very practical book about improving reading speed and comprehension. Key topics covered includes Preview, Space Reading, Chunking, Subvocalisation, Fixation, Regression, Peripheral vision, Topuc sentences, Vocabulary and Visualisation.
Simple, a very light intro to speed reading
This book is easy to approach, simple concepts with a few practice exercises. If you’ve read other speed reading books you probably don’t need to read this.

This was a quick read. I sped through it...
The author discussed several techniques on how to improve your reading speed and comprehension.
Some of those recommendations were stating the obvious, but in general it can be useful.
I can imagine it can help to get you through piles of study books and other material, as a fairly large part of the book is not so much about the speed reading itself as well about studying techniques and memortization.

Well, am yet to read 200 pages in 1 hour, but i don't regret reading this book. For the first time in many years i have been able to finish 200+ paged books in one day with full comprehension of the content. Something that i would initially spend weeks on end!
