As someone who loves books and reading, I am always trying to find new ways to get as much information in my head as possible. Therefore I was super-excited to find this article:
The Way You Read Books Says a Lot About Your Intelligence, Here's Why, by Michael Simmons.
I was stumbling around looking for research to support my idea that early academics isn't best (although, likely you can find information to support either side).
Now I will admit looking for research that confirms my biases is not great methodology, and I can do better. I'll work on that later this year!
Anyway, I was so excited to find this article because it gives a clear formula for extracting the best out of a nonfiction book, quick. They should teach this in college. Let's be honest, we can't always read everything that his out there. But we can read reviews, interviews, and first and last chapters within 30 minutes or so. Imagine how much you can absorb by using this method. I love it!
