Newkirk (English, U. of New Hampshire) offers a semi-autobiographical account of the appeal of slow reading, or the essence of taking in the whole meaning of what is read without being rushed. One chapter colorfully describes how reading silently only became the norm in the ninth century and how by the twentieth century strategies for suppressing vocalization became increasingly predominant. Filled with interesting stories and accounts, the book is an expansion of Newkirk's article "The Case for Slow Reading" which originally appeared in Educational Leadership.
