Book Review: Stolen Focus

Stolen Focus
by Johann Hari
Review by Claude

WOW! Just stunning. The breadth of this book is so vast that it would seem impossible to condense it to just under 300 pages, yet somehow Hari does it. This is a book that leaves you thinking and sticks with you day and night. It explains so much about the way technology has become deeply intertwined with the human experience, and the systems that keep us locked in this cycle. This book is haunting, yet hopeful! It conveys with urgency the need for us to hold big tech to account and redesign a society with wellbeing at its centre. So good. So important. So scary.
