In recent years, a pronounced transformation of human attention has
been taking place. From the epidemic diagnoses of ADHD to the
calculable metrics of the 'attention economy, ' a groundswell of
discourses have intensified scrutiny on attention as a social
problem that cuts across psychology, economics, art and design,
media technology, popular culture, and the experience of everyday
life. Kenneth Rogers takes the vital first step in the project of
mapping out the complex of power relations that surround and
support the proliferating technologies, knowledge systems, and
social practices of attention. By unfolding the dramatic historical
development of attention's successive disappearance, return, and
transformation within formal scientific knowledge, he arrives at a
better understanding how the vestiges of political power deeply
inform the rise of new attention technologies and the pervasive
social and cultural uses of attention in today's society.
