By the same principle, read the first chapter (approximately) of next term’s textbook to get a good summary of what you need to learn now. You can continue this method all the way to research monographs, as long as you can tell what books are at the next level (and if there is a next level, but that’s where the papers come in). Of course, you only get an overview, but sometimes that’s all that you need.
