Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. The Digital Revolution: Loss of Self and Humanity explores how digital algorithms reshape our minds, lives, and society and offers a powerful call to reclaim time, attention, and humanity in an AI-driven world.Digital algorithms are reshaping our minds and lives, trading convenience for a loss of self, agency, connection, and humanity. The Digital Revolution, based on more than sixty years of research across multiple fieldsincluding psychology, technology, and philosophypursues a holistic approach to answering the question of how digitization affects us and our relation to the world around us.The Digital Revolution takes the reader on an unexpected journey, starting from the great tech revolutions of the early twentieth century and the invention of the first modern computers in the post-World War II era to inside our very own minds, exploring the neural mechanisms of addiction, altered states of consciousness, and age-old questions around perception versus reality.Today, despite unprecedented connectivity and access to information, we feel lonelier, adrift in an era that consumes our time and attention. By college, most young people have already spent tens of thousands of hours on screens, immersed in a silent Digital Revolution that has quietly established a subversive foothold in our previously analog lives. You want to put down your phone, but you cant. You want to quit social media, yet you vacillate. You want to read a book but keep picking up your phone instead. You feel like time is slipping away. These devices promise to save us time and make life more convenient, but all they do is keep us busyand not with the tasks we want to do. Though we sense the negative impact, breaking free is difficult.Despite clear evidence of harm, the people most affectedparents, teachers, children, and adolescentslack accessible information on this topic. Drawing on Georges long career as a philosopher and educator, this book offers insights from personal lived experience, tracing technological shifts from the 1930s to today. It aims to empower readers to become intentional participants in this revolution, reclaiming time, connection, and self-awareness. As AI is becoming increasingly dominant in shaping our daily lives, professional endeavors, and social interactions, The Digital Revolution is both a warning and a guide to conscious change.The Digital Revolution seeks not only to understand this developmentwhat is artificial intelligence and how should we understand its role in our lives?but also suggests how we can maintain human control in a world where digital algorithms set the tone and the pace of work, leisure, communication, consumption, and so much more.
