“Maybe we're all reading too much too fast”

Newsweek:

The Slow Reading movement is hardly a movement at all. There's no letterhead, no board of directors, and horrors, no central Web site—there are Web sites, several, in fact, all of them preaching, in various ways, the virtues of reading slowly. But mostly the "movement" is just a bunch of authors, schoolteachers, and college professors who think that just maybe we're all reading too much too fast and that instead we should think more highly of those who take their time with a book or an article.
