Review:
"A truly addictive book ... a fascinating and much needed exploration of one of the most troubling phenomena of modern times" -- MALCOLM GLADWELL "Brilliant. Irresistible offers a crucial understanding of how we are psychologically tethered to our devices, along with much-needed solutions" -- SUSAN CAIN author of QUIET "Essential reading if you've ever wondered why some experiences are so addictive, and how to regain control of your time, finances, and relationships" -- CHARLES DUHIGG, author of THE POWER OF HABIT "An important, groundbreaking book about why we're addicted to technology, how we got here, and what we should do next" -- ARIANNA HUFFINGTON, author of THRIVE "There could be no better guide than Adam Alter to a technological landscape that's increasingly designed to turn us into addicts. Your sanity will thank you for reading it" -- OLIVER BURKEMAN, author of THE ANTIDOTE

Grand Eagle Retail

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Almost half of the developed population has an internet-based addiction. In some ways this is not surprising, as our world is filled with addictive experiences: from social media and messaging, to rolling news and video streaming. Attention spans are decreasing as our time spent glued to our screens are increasing, negatively affecting our ability to relax, sleep, develop relationships and achieve meaningful goals. Psychologist Adam Alter provides insight into why explains the science behind why we can't seem to stop such behaviour and offers practical advice for using technology differently, in order to lead a happier life, and to set yourself free. This examination of todays tech-zombie epidemic is worth putting your phone down for Guardian 'Essential reading. Regain control of your time, finances and relationships' Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit Our world is filled with addictive experiences, from social media and messaging to rolling news and video streaming. They affect our ability to relax, develop relationships and achieve meaningful goals. In this book, the author explains why we can't stop scrolling, clicking and watching.
