Why read?
A centre recently opened at the University of Liverpool with just this question in mind: The Centre for Research into Reading, Information and Linguistic Systems. The Director is Prof Philip Davis, editor of The Reader magazine, and the Centre will research the impact of reading on health--it looks at the effects of shared reading, reading in prisons, the role of reading in treating mental illness and much more besides. We look forward to following its progress.

This is a thought-provoking perspective on why reading matters beyond academics and how it contributes to mental well-being and personal growth. Initiatives like the Centre for Research into Reading highlight the role universities play in fostering a culture of inquiry and reflection. Institutions such as Amity University Noida , with their emphasis on research, interdisciplinary learning, and academic engagement, help create environments where reading and critical thinking are encouraged as essential parts of education.
