Buying a car or a house with a mortgage has become commonplace today. But a century ago, a 17-year-old boy "mortgaged" to buy a set of the Britannica! By the time he paid off the book debt in three years, he had already read through it once. This is the author of this book, the English teacher of Hu Shih, an educator, and a publisher—Wang Yunwu. From a young age, we are taught various learning methods and techniques, such as "how to concentrate in class," "how to preview and review," "how to solve problems," and so on. Books on this topic are abundant and ever-increasing. This book is certainly not a magic pill for "how to learn." The author, who left school before completing elementary education and only started with "literacy," taught himself and became the "father of a PhD." His success story offers practical methods and actionable paths for "how to read" and "how to learn." Whether you are studying in school or self-improving in your spare time, this small book is sure to provide you with some help.
