This book, a true classic, explains how to turn reading into a dialogue with the author, learn to read between the lines, and find an approach to even the most difficult texts—so that what you read provides invaluable experience and changes you for the better.

Mortimer Adler realized he couldn't read after college. He couldn't truly read: he consumed information but without a deep understanding of the text, missing the author's intended meaning. The philosopher, teacher, and future editorial board chairman of the Encyclopedia Britannica would dedicate his life to mastering the true art of reading—and teaching it to others.
