How to Read (and Understand) Hard Books

"This is a guide to reading and understanding your books. Most of what I say is based on Mortimer Adler's book 'How to Read a Book', which I highly recommend to anyone who wants to get serious about reading. Aside from the four levels of reading, Adler's book goes over the differences between reading fiction, different types of non-fiction (history, philosophy, etc.), and practical books.
