關於產品

Product Information

The best-known educator of the twentieth century was a scammer in cashmere. "The most famous reading teacher in the world," as television hosts introduced her, Evelyn Wood had little classroom experience, no degrees in reading instruction, and a background that included a collaboration with the Third Reich. Nevertheless, a nation spooked by Sputnik and panicked by paperwork eagerly embraced her promises of a speed-reading revolution. Journalists, lawmakers and two US presidents lent credibility to Wood's claims of turbocharging reading speeds. A royal-born Wood grad said she'd polished off Moby Dick in three hours; a senator swore he finished one book per lunchtime. Fudging test results and squelching critics, Wood's popularity endured even as science proved that her system taught only skimming, with disastrous effects on comprehension. As apps and online courses attempt to spark a speed-reading revival, this engaging look at Wood's rise from missionary to marketer exposes the pitfalls of wishful thinking.

Reviews
Journalist Biederman's coverage of the science of reading and the Wood franchise will enlighten readers at any speed...This is an intriguing and surprising biography of a woman who was once a household name., Journalist Biederman did extensive research on her subject, which shines through in this clear telling...The author convincingly portrays Wood as a fraud who threw off academic critics by embracing politicians' endorsements. A clearly written book, laced with wry humor amid condemnation.
