About This Book
Everywhere in the world, our ability to focus is affected. It's collapsing. American teenagers cannot concentrate on one task for more than 65 seconds. The average concentration time of office workers is only 3 minutes. New York Times best-selling author and journalist Johan Hari went on a journey to meet leading scientists and experts in this field around the world to find out why this phenomenon occurs. And in the meantime he discovered that we were wrong on this subject.
We often think of inability to concentrate and distraction as a personal failure to exercise self-control over digital devices such as smartphones. But that's not the case. The author explains that the concentration problems we are currently experiencing are similar to the increase in obesity rates in modern society. Just as changes in the food supply system and lifestyle centered on junk food have led to an increase in obesity rates, the widespread increase in concentration crises is also an epidemic created by the modern social system.
『Stolen Concentration』 demands a reset of the perspective on concentration problems and presents an unstoppable counterargument to the system. By reading this book, we will be able to finally focus again after getting a clear answer to how our concentration has been stolen.
