Description
The Shallows: How the Internet Is Changing the Way We Think, Read and Remember The Internet has a profound impact on our daily lives, and its effects on our minds are just as significant. In this landmark book, Nicholas Carr explores how the Net is changing the way we think, communicate, remember, and even conceive of ourselves. By examining the latest research, Carr reveals how the web is literally re-wiring our brains, inducing only superficial understanding. The Shallows is not a call to reject technology, but rather a reminder of how far the Internet has become enmeshed in our existence. This 10th-anniversary edition includes a new afterword that brings the story up to date, with a deep examination of the cognitive and behavioural effects of smartphones and social media.
