Dr. Abdul Karim Bakkar mentions: It is unfortunate that a nation whose first word revealed in its book and cultural constitution is 'Read' needs encouragement to read and understand its importance for regaining its identity! Despite the book's small size, the concepts and mechanisms outlined by Dr. Abdul Karim Bakkar make it as valuable as larger books. I believe 'Fruitful Reading' is highly beneficial for beginners, particularly those seeking to enter the world of culture and extensive knowledge. The author posed an intriguing question: Why do we read? He answered that reading serves to expand understanding, gather information on specific matters, entertain, remove embarrassment, fulfill professional development, respond to a sense of duty, or show love for knowledge and emulate its people. Dr. Bakkar then categorized types of reading into exploratory, speed, selective, analytical, and focused reading.
