Reading
Quickly read section 1 of Chapter III of Bredon's book, and then read sections 2-4 three times:
- First time as if you were reading a novel - quickly and without too much attention to detail, just to learn what the main keywords and concepts and goals are.
- Second time like you were studying for an exam on the subject - slowly and not skipping anything, verifying every little detail.
- And then a third time, again at a quicker pace, to remind yourself of the bigger picture all those little details are there to paint.
Also, pre-read (just once), the rest of chapter III.
