Review # 2 was written on 2014-04-20 00:00:00 Jeff Small A much more engaged and comprehensive book than the others I've recently read on the process of reading: "Reading has a complex social role. It is one of the most important ways human beings take in knowledge, learn, and go about the business of what Stein could call, with her fondness for gerunds, being human. Without a reading that pursues ideals, all this is at risk. Without pursuing reading's renewal, we hazard no longer thinking of ourselves as doers or undoers, as shifters of patterns of thought."
