‘How to Read a Book’ is a reading guide that will offer you detailed guidance for reading. Since its first publication in 1940, it has received positive reception in many Western countries, leading to it being republished several times. The author’s deep contemplation and broad view on the subject, can make reading much easier for people who both do not understand it and are exploring it for the first time. This book not only introduces general methods for reading, giving specific techniques for different types of books, but also discusses the essence and meaning of reading.
This book was written by two authors. The first is Mortimer J. Adler, who was a scholar, educator, and editor. He was the chief editor for ‘Great Books of the Western World’ and directed the editing for the 15th edition of the ‘Encyclopedia Britannica’. The second author was Charles van Doren, who was a professor at Columbia University and later left his position to edit the ‘Encyclopedia Britannica’ with Adler. He provided substantial literary input and rewrote the first edition of this book. Thus, both their names were on the new 1970 edition of this book.
