Description
Our digital world is transforming the way we live and think. From toddlers playing with iPads to adults spending hours staring at screens, it's clear that technology is having a profound impact on our culture and society.
Dr Susan Greenfield explores how the Digital Age has altered our landscape, fueled an epidemic of oversharing, and transformed how we learn, remember and spread information. With a blend of scientific studies, news events, and cultural criticism, Mind Change presents a thought-provoking snapshot of our global 'now'.
This book is a warning cry about the social, cultural and physiological ramifications of our new digital lifestyle, making it an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the impact of technology on our lives.
