Beschreibung

Drawing on decades of research, The Extinction of Experience is a philosophical defence of what makes us human and a powerful, urgent call to reclaim ourselves in a digital world.'Fascinating and timely' OLIVER BURKEMAN'An extremely important book' JONATHAN HAIDT'Essential reading in a dislocated world' KATHERINE MAYHuman experiences are disappearing.Social media, gaming and dating apps have usurped in-person interaction; handwriting is no longer prioritised in schools; and emotion is sooner expressed through likes and emojis than face-to-face conversations. With headphones in and eyes trained on our phones, even boredom has been obliterated. But, as Christine Rosen expertly shows, when we embrace this mediated life and conform to the demands of the machine, we risk becoming more machine-like ourselves.There is another way. For too long we ve accepted the idea that change always means better. But rapidly developing technology isn t neutral it s ambivalent, and capable of enormous harm. To improve our well-being, help future generations flourish and recover our shared humanity, we must become more mindful users of technology and more discerning of how it uses us.From TikTok challenges and algorithms to surveillance devices and conspiracy culture, The Extinction of Experience reveals the human crisis of our digital age and urges us to return to the real world, while we still can.'Christine Rosen is one of America's best writers and thinkers' Washington Examiner
