Science: Nicholas Carr: The Internet and Your Brain
Tech journalist Nicholas Carr is the guy who dared ask, "Is Google making us stoopid?", and his celebrated story for The Atlantic story tapped into a well of Internet anxiety. In his latest book, The Shallows, he dips even deeper, exploring the Internet's intellectual and societal consequences, arguing that it is rerouting our neural pathways, and replacing the contemplative mind of the book reader with the distracted mind of the screen watcher. Presented as part of Seattle Science Lectures, with Pacific Science Center and University Book Store. Series sponsored by Microsoft.
