    A major reason why I switched to ipad for reading books was, I often leave the book and google for stuff mentioned in it that I'm curious about. Pinker's The Better Angels of Our Nature, for example, mentions things that are impossible to understand and ignore without visual representations, such as torture devices museums. Other stuff such as names of places, people, food, etc. If I don't read a book cover to cover, including full information about the author and their political stance, I haven't read the book.

    I took a speed reading course about 40 years ago. I still get an anxiety attack whenever the subject comes up.🤗

    I didn't notice before, but is really important put more attention in verbs and nouns, that in the complete meaning of a sentence. Very good tip x read.

    One question: what about reading ebooks on tablets? Does it provide some benefits or carry some cons behind reading a tablet's screen through downloadable books?

    They do know why reading from a back-lit screen is bad for your eyes. That's why you should get a dedicated reading device such as a Kindle, because it is front-lit, eliminating eye strain.

    I suspect as this research is repeated with each generation, we will see vast differences, such as Zoomers gave up reading for video but Gen-X and Millennials mastered screen reading, and Boomers just wander around lost.
