Summary: Incredibly effective; years ahead of anything else!
Review: When I first heard about 'photoreading', I figured it was some kind of photographic memory system for memorizing entire books. Instead, the system teaches you to feed your mind directly with the full contents of a book without the delays caused by subvocalization or any other bad habits. In other words, it makes reading with other methods (even traditional speedreading techniques) seem like childsplay. The results are equally impressive. The hardest part of the system is being able to believe in it, even after it continues to prove itself time and time again. But just like you don't have to believe in rain for it to get you wet, photoreading is real and it works whether you believe in the theory behind it or not. In fact, photoreading works so well, it may make you wonder whether you're awake or just living a dream. The book's writing could be improved upon (at times it seems lacking in content and/or details), but that deters little from an incredibly effective system.

Summary: There is no other book like this one on the market today!
Review: I read over thirty books a year and in the course of reading I sometimes forget what I have read. I also unable to read faster and to me that was a problem. Paul Scheele's PhotoReading book can help take care of this problem. In just over 160 pages you'll find techniques for improving your reading and comprehension books. Scheele conveys an easy to follow set of guidelines and makes reading more enjoyable at the same time. With the understanding that knowledge is power, PhotoReading allows you to retain more information and recall what you've read giving you a better chance at success. The steps from this book helped me immediately and with continual use I am sure to be able to photoread in no time flat. You can find other books on speed-reading, but you'll never find another book on PhotoReading.

Summary: Don't be duped!
Review: Speed Reading Theory: The faster you read, the faster you'll recognize the things you don't understand, the faster you can return to the information and read it slower for better comprehension. The other aspect of speed reading involves eye mechanics. You have the option of chasing your finger all over the page or catching any words you can in your peripheral vision by abruptly stopping every two inches. Oh yeah, here's a new one: pretend you have a subconscious mind that can do all the work for you. Simply flip through the pages as fast as you want, stare at the center of the book while crossing your eyes, then go back through the entire book pulling out random passages as if they are the most critical points in the book since, as the author says "90% of books are fluff anyway." Then be sure to thank your left brain for doubting this long awaited breakthrough, while giving the mysteries of the right brain a debt of gratitude for discovering yet another creative way to rip thousands of people off!! Wouldn't it be amazing if someone could actually read a piece of material by actually understanding as they go?!? Maybe it would be wise to look up something when you don't understand it, instead of skipping over it to come back to later. If you don't understand what 1+1 is, then how can anyone expect to grasp what 2+2 is? There is a compilation of those pesky stumbling blocks known to the traditional reader as WORDS that make up sentences. It's called a DICTIONARY! Very helpful with grasping the written word. Check it out.

Summary: Yeah right!
Review: Useless!!!! Just read more and you'll read faster for free! There's no use in the whole speed reading hype! If there was a real speed reading course that worked, then why isn't it caught in school? Hell, I learned the metric system in school and we don't even use it in America!

Summary: Truely abusing the definition NLP
Review: This book claims that thru some mysterious power, we could use NLP to link our conscious and subconscious minds together for excelleration in reading.. the idea that the subconscious mind could tell the conscious what it perceived after a very brief browse thru pages is just halarius and UNHEARD of.. I wonder why the book got so many 5 stars.. and I doubt their credibility!! YAH.. Paul R. Scheele probably disguised as readers and wrote all those comments himself.. JUNK!!

Summary: This book isn't worth it
Review: This book is nothing , I don't believe that i bought this book. It shows nothing in using the technique. Using our mind to photoread there is a way ,but this book shows nothing.

Summary: Excellent Course
Review: This is book, in my opinion is written very well. The author gives clear and practical explantions on how to asorb massive amounts of information. Using the system I have noticed a nice and steady increase in my vocabulary and less time in studying. I totally disagree with the reader from Ar, I do not think that that person even tried the system and did not apply to his or her life. Application is everything, even with accelerated learning techniques. Excellent book!

Summary: Photoreading is an awesome and effective system
Review: I took the class before I read the book. I use the book as a reference. The method, however you learn it, is awesome!! If you've studied this method, and don't think it works, remember the interesting thing I discovered. A newly read book feels "new", the information "fresh". When you photoread a book, the information you absorb feels "old", like you've known it for years. It comes up from the depths of the other-than-conscious mind, which is where photoreading put it, like an old friend. This may seem to you like something didn't "take". Try photoreading again, reading something you know absolutely nothing about. The knowledge feels "old" even when you didn't know it a couple of hours ago. The other odd effect I found was that I could critique a book I never "read". I photoread a book for the class, which I found I couldn't "remember". I then proceeded to give a fairly complete and accurate critique of all its flaws, including grammatical ones. My other-than-conscious mind knew it was a piece of junk, even when I couldn't "remember" the details of it. The other side-effect? You sleep like a rock. Photoread a couple of books after dinner. Don't activate, just photoread. You'll get the best night's sleep you've had in a long time. Your other-than-conscious mind is too busy integrating all that information you just gave it to keep you awake. (That's the simple answer. Ask Paul Scheele for the technical one.) Don't hold me to this, however. Your mind's mileage may vary.
