Reviews
"Prescient when it originally appeared, Distracted is now MORE ESSENTIAL THAN EVER. This new edition deserves your full attention." - Nicholas Carr, author of The Shallows and The Glass Cage "Maggie Jackson has an ear fine-tuned to what is important in the culture--to the trends that matter! She writes beautifully, in a way that commands attention, but when there is poetry in her subject she makes sure that it gets its due. I'm a fan!" --Sherry Turkle, MIT Professor, and author of Reclaiming Conversation and Alone Together, "Prescient when it originally appeared, Distracted is now MORE ESSENTIAL THAN EVER.

Synopsis
WINNER of the 2020 Dorothy Lee Book Award for Outstanding Book on Technology and Culture In the first edition of this groundbreaking book, Maggie Jackson sounded a prescient warning of a looming crisis- the fragmentation of attention that is eroding our abilities to problem-solve, innovate, and care for one another. Now in this updated edition with an incisive new preface, she offers both a renewed wake-up call and a path forward as we reckon with one of the most pressing problems of our time. How can we harness the technological marvels of our age more wisely and turn data into knowledge and distraction into attention? How can we reset human bonds in a time of deep disconnect? We must, she argues, curb technological excess by cultivating the full gamut of our attentional capabilities. We must look first to the human behind the device. Jackson is our expert guide in exploring the historic roots of distraction, the perils we face in melding human and machine, and the cutting-edge science that reveals the attentional skills most needed in an age of overload. Timely and unforgettable, Distracted offers a harrowing yet hopeful account of the fate of our highest human capacity., This visionary book details the steep costs of our deepening crisis of distraction and reveals remarkable scientific discoveries that can help us rekindle our powers of focus and sustained attention.In the first edition of this groundbreaking book, Maggie Jackson sounded a prescient warning of a looming crisis: the fragmentation of attention that is eroding our abilities to problem-solve, innovate, and care for one another.

- s***e (45)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThe book, "The Unbreakable Brain," is better than "as described". It looks like a brand new, unused book in excellent condition, which makes it a super value for the cost. It was shipped in a protective package with free shipping, yet another super value! I am incredibly pleased with this seller, and they even sent me a coupon to buy four and get two books free. That's a fantastic gift and quite generous! Thank you for being an excellent seller!
- 4***4 (3230)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoFast seller shipping & received in less than a week. Well packed & protected in a sturdy box with 11 other books I ordered. The book, "The Ultimate Ocean Facts for Kids, Teens & Adults" is a soft bound chapter book that asks questions, gives interesting facts, & encourages additional reading. As described, the book will be perfect to spark interest in the classroom. Great eBay find & purchase at a super value price. Highly recommend this seller.
- 2***0 (310)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoExactly what I needed. As described. Fast shipping and arrived safely. Outer packaging sustained damage (multiple holes into the package), but fortunately no damage. If you don’t hate the USPS yet, just wait. Great value, significantly less than similar options on Amazon. Purchased for Christmas present. We are going on our trip of a lifetime next spring. Thank you for being a part of our adventures. Happy customer!
