It is the end of summer, in 2006, and Reggie Shaw was driving to work. While texting, Reggie crosses the center line and hits an oncoming vehicle. The crash kills both men in the car, both rocket scientists, and injures the driver in the car behind Reggie. In his bestselling book A Deadly Wander, Matt Richtel tells Reggie’s story while also taking a look at human attention and how distractions can affect the brain.It didn’t take me very long to get hooked, and I wasn’t surprised to see that this book had become a best seller. The writing is never dry and Richtel’s focus on Reggie, the subsequent investigation, the court case, and the rest of people involved provided a strong narrative backbone. This narrative structure is what first hooked me and kept me reading.While Richtel intercuts this story with a look at the science behind attention and distraction, I felt myself itching to get back to Reggie’s story. This isn’t to say the other sections are bad. They were very interesting and provided a lot of insight into the human brain that I had not heard before. I would be interested in reading a separate book that expands on the information provided here even though it didn’t quite ‘grip’ me in the same way that the narrative element did.A Deadly Wandering shows the potential deadliness behind cell phone use while driving and does an excellent job showing how it is different than other possible distractions such as changing the radio station or eating a burger. While I do usually make a point not to use my phone while driving, it is easy to think that a quick check after a ‘chirp’ isn’t that big of deal. After reading this book I am much more conscious about how I interact with my phone while driving.While the ending of the book gets a little bit repetitive, it’s hard to fault it too much given the strength of the information it provides. I’m not usually one to recommend a book for ‘everyone,’ but this one is certainly very close. Given how commonplace texting while driving seems to be, any driver with a cell phone may find this book enlightening. At the very least I would love to see an abbreviated version of this published to use in driver education courses.5/5 StarsI received this book free from TLC Book Tours. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255
This book really ought to be required reading, with the added bonus that it's a great read! Hard to put down.My first take on A Deadly Wandering came even before I read it, after seeing Richtel's interview on BookTV, and it was this: people who text/talk while driving may not be able to help it! Their brains are compelling them to do it. So I dropped a lot of judgment surrounding that issue, which was really helpful. That's all the more reason why we need to be aware of how complex the issues are, and try to remove some of the societal pressures to answer the phone or respond to texts. For example, here's one idea: do not call or text your family members asking "when are you going to be home?" You could kill somebody this way. Plus, why do you need to know? How urgent is it - ever - to know when somebody is arriving? I think there's a lot we can do even when we're not on the road to save those who are. Those texting drivers are talking to someone! That person is an enabler. Like the texting drivers, the enablers are also taken over by their brains. We may need to lower our judgment and increase our understanding about how that happens, in order to save more lives.I was surprised by the research suggesting that hands-free phones may be just as dangerous as handheld phones, because your *mind* is off the road. Although I shouldn't have been surprised, because I've noticed this even in myself when I'm trying to have a conversation while driving (I don't very often and now I won't at all). Talking on the phone while driving may rise to the level of alcohol as a disabler, and texting becomes worse than driving drunk. One study cited in Wandering says that after you hit "send" on a text, your mind may not see the road for another 15-18 seconds. This is a lot of time if you're traveling at 60mph without seeing the road in front of you.As for the storylines in this book, I was fascinated by all the characters. Richtel really digs in deep and presents each of them in remarkable detail. That goes for Reggie and other characters who make up the main thread of the story, as well as for the neuroscientists who are featured as experts on the research.Sorry if I spent more time in this review talking about my conclusions than the actual story. Just to say that it really got me thinking, and has also given me permission to say no - I'm not available for any kind of distraction while I'm driving. I've even cancelled my satellite radio because I found it too distracting most of the time, making choices between hundreds of channels. This is a very important book, and fascinating to read. Whatever you think this book might be about, it's about so much more. It's about all of us, it's about telling the truth, and it's about being more aware of ourselves.
