Read this quote from
In Praise of the Slow Read by Jeremiah Jacques
"Recent studies show that the desire and ability to undertake a slow, thorough reading are rapidly going the way of the dodo.
Rather than reading books at length and thinking deeply, we erratically sample our knowledge morsels from a vast array of fast-food factoids buffets.
For the the sake of connectivity, we sacrifice our *capacities to reflect and synthesize these facts into a coherent bigger picture."
*we sacrifice our ability to articulate our own voices
Think about this deeply and publish a response...............
