SUMMARY - How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy by Jenny Odell
* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes.
*By reading this summary, you will learn the art of doing nothing, especially to resist the addiction of social networks and new technologies.
*You will also learn : that the market economy uses your attention and your time to make profit; that your attention is captured in increasingly critical and sophisticated ways; that doing nothing brings many cognitive benefits; how improving your concentration can change your reality and improve your happiness.
*If you are regularly inundated with bad news, "fake news" or constant solicitations on social networks, you surely have the impression that everything is going too fast. It turns out that you are a victim of the culmination of highly studied methods to capture more and more of your attention and time in order to monetize them. Indeed, without you even being aware of it, the market economy is making a lot of money on your back. Even worse, it does so at the expense of your happiness! By shamelessly and constantly channeling your attention, it prevents you from thinking about what is really important to you. Resisting this "economy of attention" has therefore become necessary, not only for individuals, but also for society as a whole. Are you ready to open your eyes?
