As you know “Children of the Code” has two meanings. One, that approximately 100 million people in the U.S. alone are living lives significantly diminished by their difficulties with reading. The other, that we are all children of the code in the sense that everything about our modern world; our science, law, politics, organizations, and technologies are all outgrowths of what the code made and makes possible in our minds. These two meanings are of course related. To really understand the challenge of learning to read we must understand the code.
