I’m currently reading Stolen Focus by Johann Hari and believe it should be required reading. In the book, the author breaks down why he believes modern society and technology is making it more difficult for us to focus. As someone who grew up with ADHD and Dyslexia in the social media age (I’m in my late-20s), sections of this book has moved me to tears. Though I recommend this book to everyone, I also understand that the book and author has faced lots of criticism. While I haven’t been treating this book as gospel, I’ve found it very eye opening, thought provoking and I’m looking to read more on this subject. Particularly when it comes to the effect social media has had on our society and mental health.
Anyone have any suggestions on similar books?
