How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy

Quality. Many of us spend much of our daily time and mindful attention responding to what others present to us for our attention. In her book titled, How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy, Jenny Odell offers for readers’ consideration a different way of engaging with the world. She proposes resistance to addictive technology and media and engaging with people and places close to us. If your quality of life involves a lot of time with devices, consider ways of breaking your patterns and pay attention to nature instead. I wonder what Odell would think of how I absorbed her book: walking outside and listening to the audiobook. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase How to Do Nothing from amazon.com.
