Reviews
This book develops students' understanding of note taking. It is easy to read and engage with: it would be beneficial to students whom are enrolling onto university programmes as preparation material for their course. -- Alice Evans * Journal of Perioperative Practice *
Packed with concise information to help students succeed at university. Whether you are an undergraduate student or undertaking a postgraduate programme, you will be able to find a book that will help you develop your study skills.

Of the three books I reviewed [Take Great Notes, Find Your Source and Plan Your Essay], all of them were easy to read and follow, with each book providing a 60 second summary before moving onto more detail in each section and providing reasoning throughout. -- Julie Quick * Journal of Perioperative Practice *
