RE: A book that changed your life - everyone wins SBI and 10 STEEM to the 1st!

I would like to recommend How to Read a Book by Mortimer J. Adler, Charles Van Doren

It's a practical guide for anyone who really loves reading. The authors described the 4 reading levels: Elementary --> Inspectional --> Analytical --> Syntopic, which is useful for anyone who really wants to master the mindset and skillset of reading books to be a better person. If you're staying at the level of reading books without connecting the dots from different books, you need to level up yourself to apply a more systematic approach.

The book also shared a list of classical books in Appendix, which is also meaningful for a lot of users.

I'm not sure whether it's the most important one for me or not. But it really provides quite some good inspiration for me in my life of reading books, and I definitely recommend any readers to learn from that book and grow into a better reader.

Wow. This is a meta-book. I personally live a book more than reading it. Thanks for this interesting take.

cool. What does live a book mean?

We could write a post for that. The concept trascends that medium represented by books and could been widened. For now let's leave this to the world of intuition.
