Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World by Maryanne Wolf

1.0

As a digital literacies scholar, I wanted to like this book more than I did. The book takes a very narrow view of literacy when we need to consider the affordances and constraints of different technology tools, modes, and media. The book offers little more than handwringing about technology’s impact on attention and memory that go back to Plato.
