Negative Positive
Title: The title is right. So is the premise. Plain old excellent.
Review: The authors opening sentence to the introduction: "Those who seek miracles or panaceas to replace work should stop here."; states the premise of this book clearly and without embellishment. Study is work, and, like work, it has skills that can be learned and sharpened.This small book should be purchased, read, reread, freely annnotated, and kept within reach on every reference shelf. I wish it had been available when I bought my Strunk and Whites'. I also hope someone makes this into a series of study couses for seveeral levels in our educational system.
