you mean like the Evelyn Woodhead speed reading course?
When I was in Elementary school many moons ago they taught us to speed read. It was one of the single best things I have ever learned.
In my occupation I have reams of info I need to go thru for various excersizes. I am 100% positive that without the skill of speed reading I would not have advanced as far as I have. I would also suggest that this skill actually served me better than all the math I ever learned...now done by various computer programs.
If a book interests me I can read it and understand it within a day or two easily....dependant on length and writing style. I dont always do it though as it does take a lot of concentration.
