Research shows that people who follow strategy B [read ten pages at once, then close the book and write a one page summary] remember 50 percent more material over the long term than people who follow strategy A [read ten pages four times in a row and try to memorize them].

PS i am a great believer in underlying and taking notes on the book itself. When some passage is important i assign a number at the top of the page, this way i can go back and read it later.
