Inspectional reading is a true level of reading. The first step of inspectional reading is to skim the book, pre read it.
First, read the title page and if it has a preface read it too. Second, read the table of contents, third check the index, fourth: read the publisher's blurb, fifth, turn the pages, dipping in here and there, reading a paragraph or two, sometimes several pages in sequence, never more than that.
The second level of inspectional reading is superficial reading. If you come up with a difficult book, make sure not to stop on words that are difficult, but just continue reading, the second time you'll read it you'll get more meaning out from it. Focus on what you understand and don't pay attention to those little things you don't.
Inspectional reading is the art of getting the most out of a book in a limited time.
A good speed reading should enable you to vary your rate of reading in accordance with the nature and complexity of the material. When speed reading, is very important that you know the different speeds appropiate to the reading you are about to do.
Use your thumb and two first two fingers to go through what you are reading. Force yourself to follow your hand.
