We spend an average of just 47 seconds on any screen before shifting our attention. It takes 25 minutes to bring our attention back to a task after an interruption. We interrupt ou rselves more than we're interrupted by others. In this book, psychologist Gloria Mark reveals these and more surprising results from her decades of research into how technology affects our attention. While the concept of “flow” has previously been considered the ideal state of focus, Dr. Mark offers a new framework to help explain how our brains function in the digital world: kinetic attention. This book reveals how we can take control, not only to find more success in our careers, but also to find health and wellness in our everyday lives. Show more
