Voltaire was asked about those who would lead the human race. He answered: Who knows how to read! More importantly than reading and how much, how to learn how to read? What do we read? Why read? ... What does one get from reading? The answer seems to be very obvious for those who return reading, reading and building awareness, and increasing the knowledge of the individual world around him, a tool to build the mind, a means of advancement and progress ... External reading assigns your academic and research work and push it towards achieving the required patience.

Every researcher must have a holistic view of the world and read several areas. In this way can greatly improve the scientific contribution that will reflect in your writing and advancement of your research.

Very good answer dear Dr. Francisco .

Thank you so much.

reading is what gives you ideas, background, gaps in the literature and information about how to do research. 'the more that you read, the more

things you will know. the more that you learn, the more places you'll go'.

I fully agree

Agree researcher should read for understanding the information and spread his wings to the other areas .... knowledge gained by reading will always be helpful and would be adopted in many situations

It is definitely required, but everybody do not want to 'spend' valuable time in such 'unnecessary works'.

I have given the reaction of many of my colleagues.

Dear, colleagues, Do you agree with the external reading in addition to the scientific research?

Personally I think it can. E.g. when we are performing a specific research which is vertically in-depth in specific area, the external reading, different topics brainstorming with others etc. can serve as the horizontal dimension i.e. make the research like "T" or "L" shape that can generate further new ideas / inspirations for the research or new research. Because through "T" or "L" development, we are widening / expanding our horizons & permutations of more research areas that we might not be able to see them initially by merely focusing on specific research vertically.

Also if we put one more dimension e.g. different methodologies etc., this can make the research becomes 3-D / cube that can improve further opportunities for more research or cover more research angles as detailed as possible.

Yes, I do believe that ,

Thanks

Dear Dr. Han Ping Fung .

Thank you so much for explaining and comment.

Hi dear Dr. Md Zafar Alam Bhuiyan

Thanks alot dear Dr. Monyer .

Highly appreciation..

Definitely yes.

In my view, external reading makes mind wide and positive. For a researcher, It is important to be a real human first.

yes , i fully agree

Definitely yes dear Dr. Yehya A. Salih .

When reading different literature's, it will help widening the level of thinking and improves your analysis and decision making capabilities and thereby productivity. So, it is not good to limit the scope of reading only on scientific related issues only. Lets read more and more and become generalist.

Dear Dr. Syed Muhammad ..

I agree with you , also I do believe in external reading and believe there is no successful researcher without reading.

Good luck..

Dear Dr. Rohith R Krishnan..

Yes Sir , I agree with you that the external reading makes mind wide and positive.
