Productbeschrijving

Teenagers in the United States can concentrate on one activity for just 65 seconds at a time, while office professionals can focus for only three minutes on average. Johann Hari discovered, like so many of us, that bouncing from gadget to device and tab to tab was a depleting and sad way to live. Nothing appeared to work despite his attempts at a variety of self-help techniques, including giving up his phone for three months. The result of Hari's epic trip across the globe to interview the foremost authorities on human attention is that he has learned that everything we believe to be true about this dilemma is untrue.

We believe that our inability to concentrate is a result of our own incapacity to control our use of technology. The reality is far more unsettling: our attention has been snatched by strong outside forces, leaving us particularly susceptible to businesses looking to steal it for financial gain. Hari discovered that this problem has twelve major root causes, ranging from an increase in pollution to a fall in mind-wandering, all of which have diverted part of our attention. He exposes readers to Silicon Valley rebels who discovered how to manipulate human attention as well as veterinarians who identify canines with ADHD in his book Stolen Focus. He investigates a slum in Rio de Janeiro where everyone seems to lose their focus in a very strange manner and a workplace in New Zealand where an unique method to boost employee productivity was found.

Importantly, Hari discovered that if we are willing to fight for it, we can regain our focus as a community and as individuals. The book Stolen Focus will change the conversation about paying attention and finally explain how to do so.
