Rolanda Boxhill – The Shallows Commentary

While reading The Shallows, chapters 3, 4 and 5, I found a common interest when I read chapter 5. Reading about how far we have come from reading books and buying discs and CD’s, to now having access to e-books and streaming music on our mobile devices, it is fascinating. I wish that Alan Turing could see how his invention has come so far in technological history. One part of the chapter that I found interesting was about the library in the Bronx, that has all their books on shelves at each end of the floor and then the middle of each floor is designated space for computers. Technology has definitely come a long way.
