This revised edition is designed to be used as an interactive workbook for self-improvement. Filled with practical hints, methods, tips, procedures, resources, and tools, this is a book which will help any learner succeed. Care has been taken to omit any "educational jargon" and to present the material in a unique, straightforward manner. Useful key concepts are presented with a positive attitude and a sense of humor.
