The top ten academic subjects are broken into digestible pieces such as: Fast Facts: One-liners that delivers important information Repeatable Quotables: Smart words by smart people to make readers look smart by repeating Visual Aids: Graphs, charts, and tables for when even a few words are way too much Cheat Sheets: Chapter-ending recaps that reinforce the major points to take away Whether they want an answer to a biology question, or to brush up on their Spanish during a commercial break, this book is perfect for people who couldn't bother paying attention the first time.
