À propos de cette écoute

Discover the art of finding balance in a wired world.

There's no doubt that technology has overrun our lives. Over the past few decades, the world has embraced "progress", and we're living with the resultant clicking, beeping, anxiety-inducing frenzy. But a creative backlash is gathering steam, helping us cope with the avalanche of data that threatens to overwhelm us daily through our computers, tablets, and smartphones.

The Joy of Missing Out considers the technologically focused life, with its impacts on our children, relationships, communities, health, work, and more, and suggests opportunities for those of us longing to cultivate a richer online and offline existence.

By examining the connected world through the lens of her own internet fast, author Christina Crook creates a convincing case for increasing intentionality in our day-to-day lives. Using historical data, typewritten letters, chapter challenges, and personal accounts, she invites us to explore a new way of living, beyond our steady state of distracted "connectedness".

Most of us can't throw away our smartphone or cut ourselves off from the internet. But we can all rethink our relationship with the digital world, discovering new ways of introducing balance and discipline to the role of technology in our lives.

This audiobook is a must-listen for anyone wishing to rediscover quietness of mind and seeking a sense of peace amidst the cacophony of the modern world.

    "Read by the author" should be a red flag. Please let the pros do it. Recording is flat and dull. Tried very hard to pay attention for 30 min but the very monotone reading made it impossible. Abandoned at chapter 1.
