Dr. Maryanne Wolf discusses why reading is a fundamentally “unnatural” act, how scanning and scrolling differ from “deep reading,” why it’s not accurate to say that “reading” is just one thing, how our brains process information differently when we’re reading on a Kindle or a laptop as opposed to a physical book, and how Wolf’s theory of a “biliterate brain” may save our species’ ability to deeply process language and information and more.
