INTRODUCTION
------------

The Recently Read module displays the history of recently read Entity a
particular user has viewed. Each authenticated user has its own history
recorded, so this module may be useful i.e. for displaying recently viewed
products on the e-commerce site. The history is displayed as a block and each
content type gets its own block.
