Through a series of lucid and engaging exercises, readers are
invited to discover healthier and more effective digital practices
From email to smart phones, and from social media to Google
searches, digital technologies have transformed the way we learn,
entertain ourselves, socialize, and work. Despite their usefulness,
these technologies have often led to information overload, stress,
and distraction. In recent years many of us have begun to look at
the pluses and minuses of our online lives and to ask how we might
more skillfully use the tools we've developed. David M. Levy, who
has lived his life between the "fast world" of high tech and the
"slow world" of contemplation, offers a welcome guide to being more
relaxed, attentive, and emotionally balanced, and more effective,
while online. In a series of exercises carefully designed to help
readers observe and reflect on their own use, Levy has readers
watch themselves closely while emailing and while multitasking, and
also to experiment with unplugging for a specified period. Never
prescriptive, the book opens up new avenues for self-inquiry and
will allow readers-in the workplace, in the classroom, and in the
privacy of their homes-to make meaningful and powerful changes.
