It's been said that chess is the "Art of analysis". Reading any book, chess or otherwise, brings with it a sense of accomplishment as we work through it ...but do we really work, or do we measure our study by the deeper penetration of the bookmarker ?

I've come to believe it's the attention we give to whatever position is in front of us that is most important.

Most chess books are bought with the best intentions and end up collecting dust.

Any trick for reading Chess Books

Yes, You should read the chess book by skipping every other word in a sentence.

When ever you come across a noun you should replace it with an adjective.

You should than take a 2 min break and ask yourself the question "What would Bobby Fischer do!"

This is the most efficent way.
