The idea of the program
It is not enough just to read the text; it is important to extract useful facts
and ideas from it. People write down notes for remembering them, as the human mind
cannot memorize more than seven objects at once. If the number of notes exceeds
a certain amount, one should systematize them. The process of notes systematization
means selecting the main ideas, dividing them into categories, deleting copies and
finding the blanks in the whole plan.
In this way, the author of the program prepared the text for this
project and his other books.
