Read -- The basic premise is that you take the book "down" the same way they took the tree down. The tree was too large to cut down all at once (ouch—there goes the fence, the tool shed, and the neighbor's garage) so they took it piece-by-piece. So, too, with a 200-page book that's too large to leave until the night before the exam or the report is due. Chop the book into smaller pieces.
Along the way, Trelease also shares insights into reading positions (elevate the feet to the level of the heart and you're pumping less oxygen to the brain and pretty soon you're d-r-o-w-s-y . . . Also, check the brightness of that light bulb. There's one setting that will tire your eye muscles before all others. If the trees guys wouldn't think of arriving without their saw, don't forget that pen or pencil if you're reading. A simple notation in the margin engages a separate section of the brain and increases memory and comprehension. (Keeps you awake too.)
