For the busy manager or professional who wants to keep up to date with the reports, articles, magazines and books on their subject but has little time to do so, the author of this book offers a range of techniques for improving reading skills. Suggestions on how to skim, how to select the appropriate speed for each type of reading, how to improve the memory, how to preview a magazine article and how to "gut" a book are all provided in a step-by-step sequence. The material in the book is presented in dramatized form, and the reader will find themselves identifying with "Digby Porter" as he builds up a repertoire of reading skills under the guidance of his boss "James Harrington". Unlike most books on reading skills, this one is designed specifically for managers and professionals, and by helping them to manage their reading it aims to improve both the benefits and the enjoyment they derive from it.
