A disc driving apparatus and an information readout method according to the present invention realize optimum servo control of a readout unit in reading out the information from a recording medium having lands and grooves. The disc driving apparatus includes a unit for correcting tracking error signals, a unit for inverting signals corrected by the correcting unit to generate inverted tracking error signals, a unit for detecting which of the lands and the grooves the readout unit is scanning, and a unit for selecting the tracking error signals or the inverted tracking error signals according to the results of detection by the detection unit to tracking-control the readout unit by the selected signals.
