Hari's subject is something that is affecting us all and this seminal work will be one of the defining books of our era. A fascinating journey into the mind and how it is being manipulated with devastating effects. Written with Hari's trademark incisive prose, indefatigable search for scientific evidence vividly presented, and illustrated with telling anecdotes, Stolen Focus is a bracing and necessary wake-up call to us all - Gabor Mate M.D. I can't remember reading a book which made me shout out "yes! That's it!" quite so many times - Stephen Fry A highly original and wide-ranging investigation into the causes of our epidemic of flagging attention. Hari not only achieves this and more, but he does so it with the pace, sparkle and energy of the best kind of thriller writer. Please sit with it, and focus - Naomi Klein A story that so many of us have felt needs to be told, but whose cause and consequences are hard to capture and articulate without guesswork, prejudice or ideology. Which means that this book could not be more vital. And this is a crisis that we must address if we are to meet any of the other pressing emergencies we face as a species, whether ecological or social. Read this book to save your mind - Susan Cain I don't know anyone thinking more deeply, or more holistically, about the crisis of our collective attention than Johann Hari. He's both lyricist and storyteller - but also an indefatigable investigator of one of the world's greatest problems: the systematic destruction of our attention. I promise you it will be worth your time and certainly worth your focus - Oprah Winfrey Johann Hari writes like a dream. Unbelievable, juicy dynamite that you have to read - Chris Evans I think this book is exactly what the world needs right now.
Read it and be free - Simon Amstell There's so much in this book. A brilliant book about one of the most important topics of our time - Dr Rangan Chatterjee This mind-blowing book explains everything.
