About the book
Nicholas Carr examines how digital technology is shaping—and possibly harming—our capacity for concentration, memory, and deep thought. Through scientific research and historical reflection, he traces the evolution of how different technologies have transformed human cognition, from writing to hypertext.
The book poses an urgent question: while we gain instant access to information, are we losing the ability to read, think, and learn in a deep and meaningful way?
