A provocative casebook for our digital times, this book is designed to jumpstart an in-depth dialogue about the historical, cultural, civic, and scientific implications of a mass shift in reading methods. Each chapter is broken down in a visual way through bullet points, bolding, and illustrations combined with descriptive paragraphs that both engage and inform the reader. This small volume weaves together some of the most cogent thought of the past 50 years, urging readers to consider anew the many questions about our "technological revolution" that remain far from settled. The chapters include: "The Technology of Individualism," "Technology & Ideology," and "Neuroplasticity."

"This expansive and searching work traverses landscapes of memory, history, and imagination - from 1769 California to the melee of the Internet in the 2020s - as Cunningham questions himself and the reader about our experience of time in an ever-changing world."--Provided by publisher.
