Some questions to consider:
  • What do writing and reading mean to us?
  • What does being educated mean?
  • What does it mean to live a necessary life?
  • What significance is there for the learner if the result is shared, saved or not?
  • Does it matter whether you read the whole book?  Do you have to do the whole assignment?

Short Resources. Consider reviewing these to help you decide whether to read the book or instead of reading the book. It's a great book!!
