... Book Review: The Pleasures of Reading in an Age of Distraction - WSJ.com. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

Mr. Jacobs's account of attention loss in the wake of technological gain will feel familiar to readers of the constant lamentations about the Internet's effects on our brains. Yet he avoids the truisms that undermine so many jeremiads against the digital age.
