I listened to an Ed Stracher course a year or two ago called "Magical Concentration". There was a lot if off-topic stuff in it. To be honest, an awful lot of it was not to do with concentration and learning. I remember he plugged his "Reading Genius" course at every opportunity he got, but judging by the lack of useful information in the concentration course, I would not be tempted to buy "Reading Genius". I don't like the way he is attacking "photoreading" on his site either, I might add. If he has invented something better, as he claims, then surely it should succeed on its own merits rather than on doubts he is trying to create about other reading systems.

No one has mentioned Dan Lee Dinke's reading system yet. It aslo has the 25,000 word upper limit. I found it a really useful addition to Photoreading with eye exercises and hand patterns to aid perception. From what I can tell, it was developed in the late 70's or early 80's. So who's copying whom?
