SUMMARY:WHY READ BOOKS?
LOCATION:Palo Alto, California, USA
DESCRIPTION:WHY READ BOOKS?
\n
\nSeth Lerer, Leah Price, and Hans Ulrich Gu
 mbrecht (moderator)
\n
\nAt a time when people express concern about the fa
 te of the book, we join three
\nvirtuoso scholars--Seth Lerer, Leah Price, 
 and Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht--who are
\nintimately familiar with the life of t
 he mind nurtured by the bound printed word. How
\nhas the book changed hist
 ory? Are engagements with books different from engagements
\nwith other med
 ia? How do new technologies transform the way we think and learn? What
\nis
  happening to life and learning as attention shifts from page to screen? Wh
 at is
\ngained and what is lost if we neglect interaction through books?
