When you read/process information...

I'm one of those "read the words" people. When I'm reading fiction, I get varying strengths of imagry, visual and maybe sound, but I don't become part of it. I end up jumping around, and might end up getting lost on some completely irrelevant thought and stop reading all together. Then I realize I'm a page over and have no idea what happened.

I mostly read technical material, textbooks and so forth. Usually the only processing I get is a voice in my head reading the words to me. And it's difficult to retain, and that's probably why. But I just can't see how I could draw myself further into say, advanced mathematics. Come to think I also completely lose myself in this material too. No avoiding that I guess.
