Reprogramming: How to Protect Your Brain in the Digital Age

We live in a world of smartphones and social networks, where everyone is always connected. So why do we increasingly feel disconnected? This question is answered in the book by Carl Marci. He shows how the habits accompanying our digital lifestyle impact the areas of the brain associated with attention, emotion, and memory, altering the way we process information and affecting how we communicate with each other. The author examines numerous pieces of evidence that excessive use of smartphones and social networks is restructuring our brains, leading to a losing deal: we neglect relationships that support us and maintain our health for weaker and more ephemeral connections.
