I skip over a lot of the spiritual based stuff and the experiences. Once I'd read through them once, I wasn't really interested in wasting my time again.
Try to look through the index and think of it in terms of what you already know.
Preparation for Lucid Dreaming: How to DJ, pick goals, and basic relaxation exercises (which you can ignore if you choose to do so)
Waking up in the Dream World: DILDs (reality checking, prospective memory for MILD, and autosuggestion)
Falling Asleep Consciously: WILDs (HIT, VILD, keeping your mind busy to WILD, using SP to WILD)
The Building Of Dreams: A few ideas of how dreams work, why they play out the way they do. Some kind of basic psychology to get you thinking about your dreams ad
Principles and Practice of Lucid Dreaming: Dream Control (Changing scenes, stabilizing, etc)
First thing I'd do is read the whole book through, without practicing any exercises. Then, as far as the exercises go, pick and choose. Do you want to WILD or DILD? Read that section again. By this point you'll have a good idea of what you want to try. The exercises vary, and you can kind of blow off what you think is stupid (for example, that pot shaped breathing stuff and lotus blah blah just gets too drawn out), but make a note of the ones that do sound legit and possible to you.
