I had the fortune of receiving an early copy of the book Born Digital: The Story of a Distracted Generation, and have to commend Robert on his insight into the ever-growing problem that is obsessive use of technology among youth. From relying on social media to provide one with a feeling of social cohesion to a growing inability among young adults to pay attention to practically anything outside of their smartphones, the issues discussed are omnipresent in the contemporary world. Robert asks great questions, and as such has developed an understanding of mass psychology which allows for a critical and high analytical view of the growing problem. I would recommend the book to anyone looking to develop a perspective on the matter at hand. Personally, I will increasingly work to distance myself from social media, and I believe that reading the book and hearing about it from Robert, has been a great step towards better understanding the roots of the problem.
