Yash is the best athlete at Robinette Middle School—so good, in fact, that he’s already playing on the high school’s JV sports teams. Imagine his shock when he learns that his JV practices have kept him from earning a state-mandated credit for eighth-grade PE. To graduate, he has to take Physical Education Equivalency—PEE, also known as “Slugfest”—in summer school.

Lost in Thought is a passionate and timely reminder that a rich life is a life rich in thought. Today, when even the humanities are often defended only for their economic or political usefulness, Hitz says our intellectual lives are valuable not despite but because of their practical uselessness. And while anyone can have an intellectual life, she encourages academics in particular to get back in touch with the desire to learn for its own sake and calls on universities to return to the person-to-person transmission of the habits of mind and heart that bring out the best in us.

I am not a philosopher and don’t really enjoy getting lost in metaphysical/spiritual thought. But I love, love, love reading and learning. This book put words to why it is so valuable to learn for the sake of learning itself (and to read fiction for the sake of reading itself, enjoy music for the music itself, etc etc), how much it enriches our experience of life and connection with others. I did not expect much from this book, but I loved it. It will be the rare book I almost certainly read again within a year of reading it the first time.
