Summary: A single piece of advise disguised as a book!!!
Review: I now know why I couldn't find this in book form (available only on cassette tape).....it's because it would be less than a good chapter long! He cousels only to know the origin of words - that's it! As helpfull as this would be, it does not constitute the subject of an entire treatise on "a shortcut...
to accelerated learning" as he promotes.

Review: I think that all readers of your books, should be interested in Don Woodruff's Kangaroo Method. How should we read ? How should we study ? As Woodruff puts it: ` You either know something or you don't know it.' But all too often, we fake our way through material we do not understand. When we reach a confusing word or meaning we may be `thrown for a loop', but we keep going.

Instead of pretending to know, we can choose to question. Every question mark can become a hook, stimulating our curiosity. The defintion of each word can open the door to new knowledge and greater clarity.

It's just common sense to focus on what we do not know, until we know it. But common sense is not so common. Listen to the Kangaroo Method tapes over and over for increased comprehension and motivation, as you study. Hey. These tapes may be just the thing you need to become an A student or a real scholar. It's certainly worth a try.

Summary: This program really helped me!
Review: I was having problems comprehending in my classes. This simple way of locating what I didn't know really hit the spot! I now look up the words I don't know and I find that I can study without, as Don says, "tuning out." This is a great and SIMPLE method that works for me.

Review: What is his so-called method? Learn the meaning of words and their origin. Learn the word "focus" and its origin, and you will be able to focus better. If you believe this, spend your money on a dictionary and skip this tape.
