INTELLIGENCE IN THE DIGITAL AGE:
How The Search for Something Larger May Be Imperiled
Rowman & Littlefield Publishers
Research shows that our digital habits are radically changing our mental capacities and emotional lives. We’re only just beginning to understand the consequences of our modern addictions to smartphones, PCs and other devices. As we experience shortened attention spans, what’s going on at a far deeper level? As we search the Internet, we’re likely shrinking our own ability to search for a larger consciousness as well.
Educational expert Lyn Lesch takes a close look at the impacts of our digital age. Packed with research, scholarship, and the latest findings on human intelligence, Lesch asserts that we’re paying a steep price for our nonstop, all-access digital world. How we work and think in a digital environment is radically altering how we think, remember, and experience. And that’s only the beginning.
Readers will learn:
- How digital technologies affect our brain functions
- How our memories are being reshaped as we work online
- How the fragmented Internet breaks the flow state vital for creativity
- How we can regain full access to our capacity for deeper thought
- How to return to a still mind and access full consciousness
As Lesch reveals, it’s not just that the Internet is distracting: the way we operate in a digital environment of endless interruptions is changing our intellectual and emotional sense of our world. Information overload is preventing us from building short-term memories; and those memories are what feed information to our long-term memories— where we conceptualize and comprehend that information into our sense of selves.
Without long-term memories, we lose our true sense of who we are—and are unable to navigate the dynamics of our lives. And our search for higher intelligence and larger meaning may be lost. Lesch makes a well-documented case for reexamining our over-reliance on the digital world, and honoring the scope of human insights and emotions. Knowledge is power—but only if we preserve the ability to still our minds, follow our thoughts, and search beyond our limitations.
