A life of books and reading is a subject that my editors and I have always wanted to explore in ARS VITAE . Our work involves writing, and we all love immersing ourselves in a good story. But when we started 
conceptualizing how to approach this subject, we found that it wasn’t just reading that we wanted to talk about, but reading slowly and deeply. So this is the theme of Volume 3. Unlike in the past, books are no longer the sole source of knowledgeand information. The Internet, often accessed from our smartphones, has become our go-to source of simple facts and information for sometime. Conversely, reading slowly and savoring the meaning of the textis becoming defined as belonging to the domain of books.
