How Social Media Stole Your Ability to Focus
Why have we lost our ability to focus? What are the causes? And, most importantly, how do we get it back?
Join 5×15 to hear about Johann Hari’s journey to the heart of this problem and the solutions he found along the way in conversation with the one and only Stephen Fry. Crucially, they will talk about how – as individuals, and as a society – we can get our focus back, if we are determined to fight for it.
Stephen Fry has described Stolen Focus as “a beautifully researched and argued exploration of the breakdown of humankind’s ability to pay attention.”
