Popis knihy

As if to prove his point, Adam Alter has written a truly addictive book about the rise of addiction. Irresistible is a fascinating and much needed exploration of one of the most troubling phenomena of modern times. -Malcolm Gladwell, author of New York Times bestsellers David and Goliath and Outliers Alter's sweep is broad: He includes not just the more obvious addictive technologies such as slot machines and video games, but the whole sweep of social media, dating apps, online shopping and other binge-inducing programs. He takes in everything (which today is most things) whose business model depends on being irresistible...[An] enjoyable yet alarming book.-Washington Post If you can't stop checking, clicking, surfing and liking, put your device down and read Adam Alter's Irresistible, an important, groundbreaking book about why we're addicted to technology, how we got here, and what we should do next. -Arianna Huffington, author of The Sleep Revolution and Thrive One of the most mesmerizing and important books I've read in quite some time. Alter brilliantly illuminates the new obsessions that are controlling our lives and offers the tools we need to rescue our businesses, our families, and our sanity. -Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Originals and Give and Take This important book explores how technology keeps us hooked, why that's destructive-and how to take back control. - People In this smart, sharply-argued book, Adam Alter lays out the evidence for a hidden danger in our lives: behavioral addiction. From tracking social media likes to counting our steps, our actions are being guided less by our own volition than by the architecture of the technologies we use. IRRESISTIBLE is a fascinating read that will leave you enlightened - and alarmed. -Daniel H. Pink, author of To Sell Is Human and Drive For many, social media presents an ideal mode of expression, but it also holds the danger of becoming a crutch or - as Adam Alter's brilliant new book illustrates - a behavioral addiction that threatens to undermine our mental health and relationships. Irresistible offers a crucial understanding of how we are psychologically tethered to our devices, along with much-needed solutions so that we can live rich, meaningful and healthy lives in an increasingly tech-driven age. -Susan Cain, co-founder of Quiet Revolution and New York Times bestselling author of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking Adam Alter has achieved the Holy Grail: a book that's important, insightful, and a pleasure to read. With cutting-edge research about our tech-obsessed world, he soothes us via novel solutions to wean us from our social networks, smartphones, games, fitness watches and other gadgets. He also illustrates the stakes: that these technologies are preventing us from forming meaningful relationships, raising empathetic children , and separating work from sleep and play. Irresistible is essential reading if you've ever wondered why some experiences are so addictive, and how to regain control of your time, finances, and relationships. -Charles Duhigg, author of New York Times bestseller The Power of Habit In Irresistible, Adam Alter illuminates the surprising, fascinating, and frightening biological and psychological connections between a toddler hitting every button in an elevator, a surgical patient asking for painkillers, and the millions of people hooked on Facebook. No one who has ever seen an advertisement, checked their email on a smartphone, or used the Internet will come away quite the same. -David Epstein, author of New York Times bestseller The Sports Gene I originally wrote this sentence on an analog word processor-that is, paper. Such was the impact of Adam Alter's meticulous research into behavioral addiction that I've become increasingly frightened of the monster that is my computer. Alter isn't an alarmist, and is evenhanded and rational in
