Description
The Ecology of Attention by Yves Citton offers a fresh perspective on the problem of attention in the digital age. Contrary to common criticisms, Citton argues that attention should be conceptualized as an ecology, examining how different environments condition our focus.
In this timely book, Citton explores how the demands on our attention are ever-increasing and how we can better understand the impact of the profusion of images and digital content. A valuable resource for students and scholars in media and communications, literary and cultural studies, and anyone concerned about the long-term consequences of the internet age.
