We've all found ourselves checking email at the dinner table, holding our breath while waiting for Outlook to load, or sitting hunched in front of a screen for an hour longer than we intended. Mobile devices and the web have invaded our lives, and this is a big idea book that addresses one of the biggest questions of our age: Can we stay connected without diminishing our intelligence, attention spans, and ability to really live? Can we have it all?

Has The Distraction Addiction turned you off from other books in this genre?
That is the problem, I am not sure what genre this book is supossed to be in. I was expecting a book about brain science and technology. I might actually choose and enjoy a book about Zen Buddhism, meditation, and the benefits of contemplative environments. While the long walks of Charles Darwin and author's geo tagging photographs is mildly interesting, I was expecting a book actually about the latest science regarding the psychological effect on humans from the increasing distraction of modern technology. An amendment to the Publisher's Summary and the sample audio section is needed to at least mention that this is primarily a book advocating a contemplative Buddhist worldview.
