It argues that although access to information has become virtually unlimited, this does not automatically lead to deep understanding or the development of intellectual discernment. The book is presented as a privileged cognitive instrument due to its linear, coherent, and reflective structure, which supports sequential reasoning, argumentative analysis, and meaning internalization. In contrast, digital environments are associated with fragmented attention, discontinuous reading patterns, and reduced cognitive effort. The study explores the distinction between “reading” and “understanding,” as well as the impact of the “post-truth” culture on the relationship between truth, opinion, and perception. It also analyzes the role of artificial intelligence in reshaping access to knowledge and emphasizes the need to strengthen critical thinking as a fundamental skill for navigating reality. Finally, the paper argues that academic institutions and specialists in cognitive and educational psychology play a crucial role in developing integrated strategies that support not only rational dimensions of reading but also its emotional and motivational components.
