Back to life

Author's name: Sophie Lavaux

Indeed, yes! We've departed from life as our minds were designed to live it since we started looking at our phones more than we looked at each other's faces. Technology, of course, isn't entirely evil, but it's also not entirely good. In this book, author Sophie Lavaux explains this in detail through nine chapters, examining how our near-total reliance on modern communication technologies has affected our minds and, consequently, our lives. This is certainly not a call to throw our phones and computers into the deep end, but rather an invitation to contemplate the changes that have occurred and are occurring within us as a result of our intense immersion in the virtual worlds that lie behind the gates of our shiny screens. It is also an invitation to learn the benefits of direct human social interaction, whether at school, work, home, or social gatherings. What might we discover by the end of this journey within the human mind?
