Synopsis:

Appropriate for courses designed to improve reading comprehension, study skills, and reading rate, Developing Reading Versatility provides a variety of reading lessons and practice opportunities for college students who need experience with all levels of comprehension: literal, critical, and affective.

Review: "The main attraction to the text is the quality of the reading passages as well as the instruction and exercises in each chapter. We like the multi-cultural aspect of the reading passages, and the quality of the text/instruction which precedes the exercises in each chapter. Also, the progressive organization of the skills, building on earlier mastered skills is a plus. We also like the three levels of comprehension, particularly the last two chapters on affective comprehension, which most other reading texts don't even consider."
