INTELLIGENCE IN THE DIGITAL AGCB

Autor Lyn Lesch
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 noi 2019
Intelligence in the Digital Age examines how our current Internet age and people's use of digital technologies may be affecting their mental capacities and emotive lives in ways in which it will become increasingly difficult for those people to explore a larger, more expansive consciousness. After beginning with an examination of how people's attention spans, working memories, and capacity for deep thought and reading are being imperiled by their addictive use of smart phones and PCs, the discussion continues with how this may be occurring at a deep level at which the brain creates short and long-term memories, pays attention, and thinks creatively. The book then explores how these negative effects may impede the search to explore the limits of one's thinking mind and memories in pursuit of a larger intelligence. People may have fewer opportunities to be successful in this pursuit simply because they will have lost access to important personal dynamics due to the effects of the digital world on their minds, brains, and inner lives.

Notă biografică

After founding and directing his own democratically run school for children ages six to fourteen for twelve years, one that received widespread attention in the Chicago area as a unique approach to education, Lyn Lesch has written four books on education reform, all of them emphasizing the importance of what occurs inside a young person while they learn. He has a lifelong interest in pursuing a larger consciousness.

Descriere

Beginning with a discussion of how the Internet and digital technologies may be affecting people's attention spans, working memories, and capacities for deep thought and reading at a level that becomes addictive, the book then moves to discussions which concern how this development might impede the search for a larger, metaphysical intelligence.
