Different types of Reading
--------------------------

When we talk about reading, we want to make a clear distinction between two different types of reading baserd on different goals. One type of reading is the type we use when we read newspapers, magazines, or anything else that based on our skill and talents we can understand readily. Such reading may increase our store of information and open us to the possibility of greater insight. We call this type of reading whole mind reading. The goal is speed and efficiency.

Another type of reading is that in which a person reads something that at first he does not completely understand. The writer is communicating something that can increase the reader's understanding. This type of reading helps a person understand more, not just remember more information of the same intelligibility as other information already possessed. We call this type of reading analytical reading. The goal in analytical reaing to achieve comprehensive understanding of a book, assumes the reader has an unlimited amount of time.

This is what is written in the article. It states that you will use analytical reading when you dont understand the topic you read completely. In my case I am new to Ericksonian hypnosis and do not understand it completely or easily. From what I understand this article says that I should use analytical reading in a case like mine. In ericksonian hypnosis for example I have to first comprehend things like embedded commands or pressups. or indirect suggestions to be able to know what I am doing when I work with a client. Again what are your views?
