Rreth këtij libri audio
“A candid, rigorous, and witty read on how to stop digital devices from wreaking havoc on our lives. As a leading expert on social media and internet policy, Kaitlyn Regehr illuminates what we can do—individually and collectively—to put our smartphones in their place.”—Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Again and host of the podcast Re:Thinking
A transformative guide to outsmarting your screen and establishing healthier tech habits that will help you and your family live better—for anyone who read The Anxious Generation and wants to know what to do next.
Dr. Kaitlyn Regehr—a celebrated researcher and professor of digital humanities—explains how we can hold on to the myriad benefits of technology while evading their hidden dangers. We are all using (and parenting around) a technology we didn’t grow up with; it makes sense that we feel overwhelmed. In Smartphone Nation, Regehr explains how these technologies work, giving you the power to change the way you (and your family) use your devices. Regehr proposes a new, food pyramid–like framework for understanding and improving our digital consumption. Some tech, like nutrient-dense food, is good for us; it is vital in our lives. But so much of what we consume via algorithms is like candy that rots our teeth: it’s disastrous for our wellbeing. Regehr’s groundbreaking research reveals how we can reclaim control and maintain a healthy digital diet.
Essential reading anyone who knows there’s more to life than staring at a screen—or who wants to raise children who believe that, too—Smartphone Nation shows how to:
• Navigate the attention economy, which prioritizes engagement at all costs
• Improve your digital nutrition for better mental health
• Spring clean your viewing experience
• Game the algorithm
• Catch misinformation
• Parent your children in the digital age
Thoughtful, clearsighted, and empowering, Smartphone Nation is essential reading for anyone who owns a phone.
*Includes a downloadable PDF of a glossary of terms and images from the printed book
