Über diesen Titel

 The beloved author of The Revenge of Analog lays out a case for a human future--not the false technological utopia we've been living.

For years, consumers have been promised a simple, carefree digital future. We could live, work, learn, and play from the comforts of our homes, and have whatever we desire brought to our door with the flick of a finger. Instant communication would bring us together. Technological convenience would give us more time to focus on what really mattered.

When the pandemic hit, that future transformed into the present, almost overnight. And the reviews aren't great. It turns out that leaving the house is underrated, instant communication spreads anger better than joy, and convenience takes away time rather than giving it to us. Oops.

But as David Sax argues in this insightful book, we've also had our eyes opened. There is nothing about the future that has to be digital, and embracing the reality of human experience doesn't mean resisting change. In chapters exploring work, school, leisure, and more, Sax asks perceptive and pointed questions: what happens to struggling students when they're not in a classroom? If our software is built for productivity, who tends to the social and cultural aspects of our jobs? Can you have religion without community?

For many people, the best parts of quarantine have been the least digital ones: baking bread, playing board games, going hiking. We used our hands and hugged our children and breathed fresh air. This book suggests that if we want a healthy future, we need to choose not convenience but community, not technology but humanity.

Kritikerstimmen

“[A]pproachable, witty… [a] deft, colorful discussion."—Kirkus
“David Sax narrates his extended plea for a return to real-life experiences in a world awash in technology. His earnestness is evident in his performance… Listeners will appreciate Sax's affable voice, especially as he conveys truly relatable moments in a never-ending struggle with digital work-life balance.”—Audiofile

I loved „revenge of the analog“ and was looking forward to this but after 4 hours I just quit. This isn’t really like a follow up to the last book, it’s mostly a description of what everyone experienced during the covid-lockdowns (which I, like many, have experienced myself and don’t need a book to retell me how shitty it was). I expected a proper new book and not the reused ideas of the last with a covid-lockdown retelling.

Corona + the last book = nothing new
