“Over the last few years, a rough consensus has emerged that there really are significant harms in giving young people unrestricted access to the internet through smartphones. […] The research community concerned about these issues are converging on the idea that the safe age to give a kid unrestricted access to a smartphone is 16.”

My team @ work has decided to read a book together each quarter. I'm picking first - should be work/professional related.
My inclination is to start with #DeepWork by #CalNewport. Any other suggestions?
“Our brains […] construct our worldview based on what we pay attention to”, Cal Newport, Deep Work #attention #popculture #news #focus #deepwork #media #calnewport http://calnewport.com/books/deep-work/
Read his book. It is a great summary of research and biographies which explains how #social #media, #facebook, all the #attention #market harms the human satisfaction with life.
