Hi Alex,Thanks for replying to my querries.
I have PRead several books on self improvement and haven't activated any of them yet.
I was hoping they will be activated on their own without my conscious efforts.
Wishful thinking. Until you've manually activated a few books the mind does not know what you expect it to do. Proceed with manual activation. I'm not kidding when I say that's the fastest way of becoming profient at PhotoReading.

I would be grateful if you could tell me how we can preview PR and then activate materials like the thesaurus, dictionaries, the World Almanac and other heavy stuff.
Who actually sits down and reads them in the first place? 
Well PhotoReaders will PhotoRead them and partially activate them.
Preview. Check that the book you are holding is what you think it is, 30 seconds. Then PhotoRead. Post view, instead. Amuse yourself. You've just done more with that book than most of the population ever will.

Think it will be too much previewing, noting trigger words,super reading, dipping, rapid reading and other steps for activation.Think one would get lost in the whole process and confusion would set in.
On the books you mentioned above. A waste of time for books that you are learning a particular subject about, very useful. Time limit is 8 minutes for a book.

Am a bit confused.Pls kindly shed some light on how this should be done.Joining PR seminar to learn the tricks is not physically possible in my country--far away from the US.Most of the people in my country even do not know what PR-WMS is.
It's in the book. Ask clear questions and I answer as specifically as I can.

I am determined to learn PR no matter how long and what it takes.I want to tell my family and collegues what a good thing PR is--a solid investment for their future.
Good on you.
By the way. Since you're posting on the PhotoReading forum we know the topic is PhotoReading. Perhaps a hint of what your first question is will create some curiosity from others. They can answer too.
