Advanced Reading Power is unlike most other reading textbooks. First, the focus is different.This book directs students' attention to their own reading processes, while most other books focus primarily on the content. Second, Advanced Reading Power is organized in a different way. It contains four separate sections that correspond to four important aspects of proficient reading, and therefore it is like four books in one. Teachers should assign work
on all four parts of the book concurrently. The four parts of Advanced Reading Power are:
• Part 1: Extensive Reading
• Part 2: Vocabulary Building
• Part 3: Comprehension Skills
• Part 4: Reading Faster

Widdowson's 70th birthday, this Ph.D. thesis available to download here makes a classic linguistic text accessible to a wider public for the first time and meets a demand frequently expressed by students and scholars alike. It is hoped that this edition will make more widely known just how far advanced H. G. Widdowson's early thinking was on many of the topics developed in his later work.
