Description
The World Without Mind: Why Google, online marketplaces, Facebook and Apple Threaten Our Future In an age dominated by four powerful corporations, our culture is being shaped in profound ways. We shop with online marketplaces, socialise on Facebook, turn to Apple for entertainment, and rely on Google for information. But at what cost? In this thought-provoking book, Franklin Foer argues that the influence of these giants is eroding our inner lives and intellectual culture. Foer makes a passionate case for reclaiming our autonomy and private contemplation in a world where technology seems to be increasingly controlling our thoughts and actions. The stakes are high, as our very sense of self and future hang in the balance. This timely book is a warning that we must heed if we are to preserve our humanity. A powerful exploration of the impact of big tech on our society, The World Without Mind is a crucial read for anyone concerned about the direction of our world.
