BOOKS TO LOOK OUT FOR IN 2022, NEW STATESMAN & CITY AM Chosen
as one of the Financial Time's Best Summer Books of 2022 Longlisted
for the Moore Prize for Human Rights Writing 'Compelling, powerful
and necessary.' Shoshana Zuboff, author of The Age of Surveillance
Capitalism 'Fascinating' Guardian Without a moment's pause, we
share our most intimate thoughts with trillion-dollar tech
companies. Their algorithms categorize us and jump to troubling
conclusions about who we are. They also shape our everyday
thoughts, choices and actions - from who we date to whether we
vote. But this is just the latest front in an age-old struggle.
Part history and part manifesto, Freedom to Think explores how the
powerful have always sought to influence how we think and what we
buy. Connecting the dots from Galileo to Alexa, human rights lawyer
Susie Alegre charts the history and fragility of our most important
human right: freedom of thought. Filled with shocking case-studies
across politics, criminal justice, and everyday life, this
ground-breaking book shows how our mental freedom is under threat
like never before. Bold and radical, Alegre argues that only by
recasting our human rights for the digital age can we safeguard our
future.
