Is reading under threat? No, says Alan Jacobs--but people do need help iand encouragemnt to enjoy it to the full. Jacobs's experience as a lecturer and many-time author suggests that many readers lack confidence; they wonder whether they are reading well, with proper focus and attentiveness, with due discretion and discernment. Many have absorbed the puritanical message that reading is, first and foremost, good for you--the intellectual equivalent of eating your Brussels sprouts. For such people, indeed for all readers, Jacobs offers some simple, powerful, and much needed advice: read at whim, read what gives you delight, and do so without shame, whether it be Stephen King or the King James Version of the Bible. He offers an insightful, accessible, and playfully irreverent guide for aspiring readers. Each chapter focuses on one aspect of approaching literary fiction, poetry, or nonfiction, and the book explores everything from the invention of silent reading, reading responsively, rereading, and reading on electronic devices. Invitingly written, with equal measures of wit and erudition, The Pleasures of Reading in an Age of Distraction will appeal to all readers, whether they be novices looking for direction or old hands seeking to recapture the pleasures of reading they first experienced as children.

英文書名是《The pleasures of reading in an age of distraction》,看書的標題就知道,這本書要傳達的兩個主題是:pleasure (樂趣)和 distraction(分心,換言之,即注意力的難以集中) 。作者說到,不應該將人籠統地分為讀書的人和不讀書的人,而應當是喜愛閱讀的人和不喜...
評分唐寜有一個書架叫閱讀,多麼有意思,我從一麵書架中選瞭一本最薄最不有名的書,隻不過覺得它輕鬆簡單,毫無閱讀的野心,也隻是想隨手翻翻。 有時就是因為這點運氣,有瞭許多不錯的體驗。我剛看瞭幾頁,就發現它不是我預計的那種暢銷書模式,也沒那麼學術,隻不過...

評分最近讀瞭一本《閱讀的樂趣》(the Pleasure of Reading in An Age of Distraction),不過,照書名直譯,似乎《在一個心不在焉的時代裏談談閱讀的樂趣》更為準確恰當。後細細想來,英譯漢,自然要考慮中文讀者習慣簡短標題這一文化背景,也就不計較瞭。看完瞭全部文章隨筆,纔...

評分還是某種程度解答瞭我訊息爆炸下的睏惑。問題在於,不能忽略的一件事是,不管hyper attention還是 deep attention,首先你得pay attention!(減一星)然後我從來不認為人有multitask的能力,多任務間切換實際是消耗精力和低效的。(減一星)

評分專欄閤集,作者雖是英語教授但語言並不花哨。看NP說讀完這本書大約相當於讀完20篇能得到100個推薦的豆瓣日記,還真是這樣。
